    cd c:\Users\uthin\OneDrive\Desktop\resume
    git init
    git add .
    git commit -m "Initial resume"

Option B: Custom Domain with Squarespace

  1. Buy domain on Squarespace (e.g., janedoe.com)

  2. Point domain to GitHub Pages:

    • In Squarespace DNS settings, add:

      • Type: A Record
      • Host: @
      • Value: 185.199.108.153
      • Add 3 more A records with: 185.199.109.153, 185.199.110.153, 185.199.111.153
    • Add CNAME record:

      • Type: CNAME
      • Host: www
      • Value: [username].github.io
  3. Configure GitHub:

    • In your repo, create file: CNAME
    • Content: yourdomain.com
    • Commit and push
  4. Wait 24-48 hours for DNS propagation

📲 QR Code Usage

The QR code contains vCard data. When scanned:

  • Opens contact info on phone
  • One tap to save to contacts
  • Perfect for business cards, email signatures, networking events

🎯 Pro Tips

Make It Stand Out:

  1. Add a professional photo - Add <img> in header
  2. Use action verbs - "Achieved", "Led", "Increased", "Developed"
  3. Quantify achievements - Use numbers, percentages, dollar amounts
  4. Keep it concise - 1-2 pages max
  5. Update regularly - Keep it fresh

SEO Optimization:

Add to <head> in index.html:

<meta name="description" content="[Name] - [Title] with expertise in [skills]">
<meta name="keywords" content="[relevant, job, keywords]">
<meta property="og:title" content="[Name] - Professional Resume">
<meta property="og:description" content="[Brief professional summary]">

Analytics (Optional):

Add Google Analytics to track visitors:

  1. Get tracking code from analytics.google.com
  2. Add before </head> in index.html

🔧 Customization

Change Colors:

Edit styles.css (lines 9-14):

--primary: #2c3e50;    /* Main headings */
--secondary: #3498db;  /* Accents */
--accent: #e74c3c;     /* Highlights */

Add Sections:

Copy any <section> block in index.html and modify.
