Introduction

Top Resumeis a block-based resume builder. Instead of wrestling a word processor, you stack sections — experience, education, skills, anything — as draggable blocks in a side panel, and a live A4 preview shows exactly what your finished document looks like as you type. When you're done, you export a pixel-perfect PDF or a structured Word file.

Quick start

  1. Open the builder at app.topresume.me and create an account (email/password, Google, or Apple).
  2. Fill in the Personal tab — your name, title, contact details, links, an optional photo, and a short summary.
  3. Switch to the Blocks tab and add sections. Each block holds rich text: headings, paragraphs, and lists.
  4. Pick a theme and page margin in the Style tab.
  5. Hit Download PDF (or Download Word) in the top bar.

Everything autosaves to your account as you edit — there is no save button, and your resume follows you across devices.
