3D resume

How to create your own 3D resume

Prerequisites

  • Basic understanding of HTML, JavaScript, and CSS.
  • Interest in learning 3D modeling.
  • A GitHub account (for hosting your resume).

Step 1: Setting up your environment

Download this repository, and open a terminal in this directory. Run the following command to start a simple HTTP server:

python3 -m http.server

Open your web browser and go to localhost:8000 to see the website.

Step 2: Learn some Blender basics

Your initial focus should be on learning some Blender. It will likely consume the bulk of your time but it's totally worth it. Here are some video tutorials.

Tips:

  • Spend some time watching Blender videos and practicing before trying to build your resume. Make sure you learn all the useful shortcuts and Blender operations.
  • Sketch your design on paper, this will help you visualise the multiple scenes.
  • Stick to a low-poly design where possible, as it's easier to manage and loads faster.
  • Use a standard colour palette, like this one.
  • Use a rigged model like this one to display your persona.
  • Optionally, you can add simple animations to the 3D scene to make it more dynamic.

You can download Blender here.

Step 3: Create your 3D models

Each scene is composed of a 3D model. By default they are nested with a scale shift of 100. Once you're satisfied with your 3D model, you can proceed to export it. Use the following settings:

  • Format: GLTF
  • File Path: models/model.glb

Important: add your model names in modelNames. They will be presented in this order.

After exporting, refresh localhost:8000 to see your model. Before going to the next step, make sure that the website looks good in different viewports (smartphone, tablet, desktop)

Step 4 (optional): Compress the 3D model to reduce loading time

In order to make the GLTF model lighter install the Draco encoder and run compress_models.sh.

Step 5: Publish using GitHub Pages

Publish your resume online using GitHub Pages. It will be hosted for free and accessible via https://your_username.github.io/resume. Follow these instructions to get it set up.
