+## My pagedown rendered CV
+
+__Switch to googlesheets__
+
+As I get older and more crotchety I find it more and more difficult to manually update a CSV. In response to this, I have moved the data-storing mechanism from a plain CSV to google sheets using the wonderful [`googlesheets4` package.](https://googlesheets4.tidyverse.org/index.html) This allows for a much more easy updating system and also makes it easy to store all the other info that didn't feel write to put into a CSV before (like the intro and aside text) right with everything as separate pages/sheets within the main sheet. 
+
+I have attempted to keep the whole thing as easy as possible to understand and modify by using a publically available sheet and preserving the old CSV driven way behind a boolean variable that can be set in the setup chunk. 
+
+
+## Structure
+
+This repo contains the source-code and results of my CV built with the [pagedown package](https://pagedown.rbind.io) and a modified version of the 'resume' template. 
+
+The main files are:
+
+- `index.Rmd`: Source template for the cv, contains a variable `PDF_EXPORT` in the header that changes styles for pdf vs html. 
+  - `index.html`: The final output of the template when the header variable `PDF_EXPORT` is set to `FALSE`. View it at [nickstrayer.me/cv](http://nickstrayer.me/cv).
+  - `strayer_cv.pdf`: The final exported pdf as rendered by Chrome on my mac laptop. Links are put in footer and notes about online version are added. 
+- `resume.Rmd`: Source template for single page resume. 
+  - `resume.html`/`strayer_resume.pdf`: Result for single page resume.
+- `parsing_functions.R`: A series of small functions for parsing a position entry into the proper HTML format. Includes logic for removing links if needed etc..
+- `gather_data.R`: Loads the data that makes up the body of both the CV and resume. Either pulls from a specified google sheet with info or multiple csvs. (Examples of both are provided in repo.)
+- `csvs/*.csv`: A series of CSVs containing the information CV and resume. Included as examples if the non-googlesheets method of storing data is prefered.  
+- `css/`: Directory containing the custom CSS files used to tweak the default 'resume' format from pagedown. 
+
+## Want to use this to build your own CV/resume? 
+
+1. Fork, clone, download the zip of this repo to your machine with RStudio.
+2. Make a copy of my [info-holding google sheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/14MQICF2F8-vf8CKPF1m4lyGKO6_thG-4aSwat1e2TWc/edit#gid=1730172225) and fill in your personal info for all the sheets (`positions`, `language_skills`, `text_blocks`, and `contact_info`). 
+    a. If you want to use CSV's instead of google sheets, update the contents of the CSVs stored in the `csvs/` folder. 
+3. Go through and personalize the supplementary text in the Rmd you desire (`index.Rmd` for CV, `resume.Rmd` for resume).
+4. Print each unique `section` (as encoded in the `section` column of `positions.csv`) in your `.Rmd` with the command `position_data %>% print_section('education')`.
+5. Get the PDF out by viewing in your browser and then doing `control/command + P` and selecting "print to pdf". Alternatively use `pagedown::chrome_print()` or `knit: pagedown::chrome_print` in RMD header. See [pagedown docs on printing](https://pagedown.rbind.io/#print-to-pdf) for more details.
+6. Let the world know how awesome you are! (Also send me a tweet/email if you desired and I will broadcast your version of the CV on this repo and or twitter.)
+
+## Looking for the old version with just a single CSV?
+
+The [blog post I originally wrote about this process](https://livefreeordichotomize.com/2019/09/04/building_a_data_driven_cv_with_r/) used an older version of this document. I think that the new googlesheets method is easier to maintain and extend, however the old version is alive and well [here.](https://github.com/nstrayer/cv/releases/tag/1.0)
