Resumas – Cross-Platform Resume Builder
Rana Naveed Sarwar
Resumas is a powerful and intuitive resume-building platform available on iOS, Android, and Web. It helps users craft professional, ATS-friendly resumes in minutes using clean templates and guided editing tools. The platform is built with React Native for mobile and React + Next.js for web, ensuring a seamless experience across devices.
My role involved leading the frontend development and user experience design—focusing on responsive design, performance, and consistency across all three platforms.
Goals
Deliver a unified experience for users on mobile and web.
Build a modern, scalable UI using React Native (mobile) and React + Next.js (web).
Integrate real-time editing, preview, and template customization features.
Optimize performance and load times for smooth navigation.
Ensure data synchronization between web and app through shared APIs.
Challenges
Maintaining consistent behavior and visual identity across mobile and web codebases.
Implementing a real-time preview engine for resume templates within tight performance constraints.
Managing multi-platform deployment pipelines (App Store, Play Store, and web).
Handling font rendering, PDF export accuracy, and dynamic layouts for multiple templates.
My Approach
Architecture Design
Structured a modular codebase allowing shared logic between platforms, reducing redundancy. Set up reusable UI components using TypeScript and styled-components for flexibility and maintainability.
Frontend Implementation
Built key modules such as template editor, real-time preview, and profile manager.
Used React Native’s performance optimizations (memoization, lazy loading, and virtualized lists).
Integrated secure API calls for user authentication, data persistence, and resume exports.
Web Development (Next.js)
Implemented server-side rendering (SSR) to enhance SEO and page-load speed.
Designed responsive layouts for desktop and mobile browsers.
Connected shared backend APIs for synchronized data management.
UI/UX Design & Testing
Designed a clean, professional interface with intuitive editing tools and visual feedback.
Conducted user testing to refine flows like onboarding, template selection, and export.
Implemented accessibility and localization support for global reach.
Results
Launched successfully on Web, iOS, and Android, with thousands of active users worldwide.
Users praise the app for its ease of use, modern templates, and instant PDF export feature.
Achieved excellent performance scores: fast load times, smooth scrolling, and minimal crashes.
Simplified maintenance through a shared component library between web and mobile.
Key Learnings
Cross-platform design requires strong attention to shared logic while respecting platform-specific UX standards.
Real-time rendering of dynamic layouts can be optimized effectively with React’s state management patterns.
Investing in clean architecture and reusable code early saves significant time during scaling and updates.
Conclusion
Resumas demonstrates my ability to build and deliver a multi-platform product using modern web and mobile technologies. From UI/UX design to full-stack integration, this project showcases my experience creating performant, user-focused digital products that are both functional and elegant across platforms.
