Skillara AI is a free, open-source AI-powered CV and resume generator built as a university project for job seekers in El Salvador and Latin America. You fill out a structured form with your professional information, choose a visual template, and the platform sends your data to a large language model that returns a fully styled, print-ready HTML document in seconds — no design skills or paid subscriptions required. The project is actively used by candidates across the region and requires no account to generate and download a CV.Documentation Index

What’s included
Skillara AI is split into two independently deployable services: a React frontend built with Vite and TypeScript and deployed on Vercel, and an Express backend running on Node.js with TypeScript. The frontend handles the form, template selection, live preview, and PDF download. The backend manages AI routing, prompt construction, and server-side PDF rendering via Playwright.Quickstart

Authentication and storage
Skillara AI uses Firebase Authentication with Google OAuth so returning users can save their generated CVs to a personal dashboard. CVs and form data are stored in Firestore under the authenticated user’s account. Users who are not logged in can still generate and download CVs; their form data is persisted locally in the browser vialocalStorage.
Skillara AI is completely free. You do not need to register or log in to generate and download a CV. An account is only required if you want to save CVs to your dashboard and access them later.
