### Serve Local Theme Directory

Source: https://github.com/jsonresume/resume-cli/blob/master/README.md

```

--------------------------------

### Description Guidelines

Source: https://github.com/jsonresume/resume-cli/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md

When writing the description, use the imperative present tense, do not capitalize the first letter, and do not end with a period.

```txt
use the imperative, present tense, e.g. "change", not "changed" nor "changes";
don't capitalize the first letter;
no period (.) at the end.
```

--------------------------------

### Run Development Script

Source: https://github.com/jsonresume/resume-cli/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md

Execute the development script for the CLI application. Any CLI arguments can be passed after the double-dash separator.

```sh
npm run dev -- [cli arguments can be passed after the double-dash]
```

--------------------------------

### Reading Resume Data from a File Path

Source: https://github.com/jsonresume/resume-cli/blob/master/README.md

Specifies a file path from which the CLI should read resume data. If this option is omitted, the CLI defaults to reading from 'resume.json' in the current working directory.

```bash
--resume <path>
```

--------------------------------

### Reading Resume Data from Standard Input

Source: https://github.com/jsonresume/resume-cli/blob/master/README.md

Instructs the CLI to read resume data from standard input (STDIN). The default MIME type for STDIN is 'application/json'.

```bash
--resume -
```

--------------------------------

### Conventional Commit Message Structure

Source: https://github.com/jsonresume/resume-cli/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md

Follow this structure for commit messages to ensure automated versioning and release notes. The type indicates the nature of the change, and an optional scope provides context.

```txt
<type>[optional scope]: <description>
```

--------------------------------

### Breaking Change Indicator

Source: https://github.com/jsonresume/resume-cli/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md

Append an exclamation mark '!' after the type or scope to indicate a breaking change, which corresponds to a MAJOR release.

```txt
type!: breaking change
```
