From Resume to Portfolio in a Day: Building a Living Portfolio website with GitHub Copilot
Resumes tend to fossilize. Websites evolve.
In this talk, I share how I turned my resume into a live portfolio website in a single day using GitHub Copilot, without being a seasoned JavaScript, CSS, or HTML dev. I will walk through converting a traditional resume into a static site, publishing it with GitHub Pages, and pointing a custom domain to it.
Through live coding with Copilot Agent Mode, attendees will see how AI-assisted development removes the friction of front-end tooling and web publishing. We will also create GitHub Actions workflow to automatically test site availability and validate SSL certificates.
Additionally, if allowed, I want to use real resumes from one of the attendees who would choose to share it ahead of time, demonstrating how anyone can replace a static Word document with a continuously evolving, open source friendly portfolio.
The goal is simple: stop updating resumes. Start shipping them.
Attendees can expect > key learnings/takeaways:
1. understanding spec-driven development
2. using ai-assisted coding in a proper way, using custom instructions and open mcp-servers.
3. architecture, thought process, design over vibe-coding.
4. prompt engineering
