Show HN: RxResume – A free and open-source resume builder

I started typing in a hex colour, and the page disappeared. And it’s persistently broken. (This is probably the biggest problem with storing persistent data, even including persistent caches of server data: if it’s broken, it stays broken. A great strength of the web historically was that reloading the page made things work again.)

Other than that, it looked better than most such things I’ve seen.

Hmm, that's weird. I had stress-tested the color options as much as I could. Even now, when I enter gibberish in the text field, it just doesn't do anything as the CSS is invalid. No reason the app should crash.

But anyway, I'll try to add some validation across the app so that this doesn't happen again. For now, to fix any issues at all, you only need to clear your local storage of the site. Here's how you can clear Local Storage on Chrome (https://www.leadshook.com/help/how-to-clear-local-storage-in...), similar steps for other browsers too.

Please let me know if that resolved the issue temporarily for you.

Still hitting problems. I enter some details, pick what I think is the third theme, choose a shade of orange, then in the accent colour field press backspace, and it dies.

Thank you so much for the detailed explanation on how to recreate the bug. I found it and squashed it, the new version should be up soon. Sorry for the inconvenience, hope the app works fine for you now :)
