JSON Resume Schema

Standard, Specification, Schema

We are still currently un-versioned, some core changes are being pushed out, and then a version 0.0.0 will be released following SemVer.org best practises. We will be experimenting with a migration.js system, each change below will be represented with a function that can update an older version of resume.json to the newer versions.

Versioning

JSON Resume Schema adheres to Semantic Versioning 2.0.0. If there is a violation of this scheme, report it as a bug. Specifically, if a patch or minor version is released and breaks backward compatibility, that version should be immediately yanked and/or a new version should be immediately released that restores compatibility. Any change that breaks the public API will only be introduced at a major-version release. As a result of this policy, you can (and should) specify any dependency on JSON Resume Schema by using the Pessimistic Version Constraint with two digits of precision.
