A resume you can diff

A resume is a document you keep for a decade and edit a hundred times. You add a role, sharpen a bullet, reorder sections for a specific application, then quietly undo half of it a month later. The tool you use should treat that as the long, iterative process it actually is.

Most builders don’t. They store your resume as opaque state behind a drag-and-drop canvas. You can see the result, but you can’t see the contentas a thing you hold. There’s no way to ask “what changed since last week?” because there’s nothing to compare.

#Plain text is the feature

In Rasumi your resume is YAML. The whole document, in the open, as text you can read top to bottom:

sections:  - type: experience    title: Experience    entries:      - title: Senior Software Engineer        subtitle: Acme Cloud        bullets:          - Led the migration to a typed API layer.

Because it’s text, it does everything text does. You can copy the whole thing into a backup. You can keep it in a git repository next to your other work. And when you tweak a bullet, a diff shows you the exact words that changed, red and green, one line at a time.

#Tailoring without fear

The real payoff shows up when you tailor. Applying to a design-leaning role and a platform-leaning one? Duplicate the resume, adjust the emphasis in each, and you have two versions you can actually reason about, because you can see precisely how they differ. No guessing which canvas has which edits.

#Your data outlives the tool

There’s a quieter benefit too. Because your resume is portable data and not a proprietary blob, it isn’t trapped. Whatever happens, the YAML is yours to take. A resume should outlive any single tool, and plain text is how you make sure it does.
