The Tech Resume Inside Out by Gergely Orosz
It's worth mentioning that I generated it with resume.md which is a great tool. It was recommended by the author. I'm not a frontend dev, but even I could tweak the CSS enough so that I could fine-tune the format to my taste.

Wkhtmltopdf: Command line tools to render HTML into PDF
For my use case[0], I found weasyprint easier to work with, it gives better results (in the sense they looked more like what I got when I saved to PDF using a browser), and it's more actively maintained.
But in the end, I switched[1] to "chrome --headless --print-to-pdf-no-header", since it reproduces browser behavior pretty much by definition and, while it's a colossal dependency, it's also trivial for non-technical users to install.

What do you use to make PDFs? What problems do you have?
https://github.com/spatie/browsershot or any other package which uses puppeteer / headless chrome. Found this to be the best solution when compared with all the other pdf tools. This alongside with the CSS print module polyfill https://github.com/pagedjs/pagedjs makes working with PDFs a breeze.
