Getting started
Import and extend the BaseResumePage:

class ResumePage(BaseResumePage):
pass
After adding the model you'll need to make a migration
python manage.py makemigrations

Weasyprint generates PDFs using the absolute URL of a resume which consists of the hostname, port and path. Therefore don't forget to configure your site's host and path in the Wagtail admin interface which is located in settings -> sites. E.g when running the server locally the host should be localhost and the port should be 8000 (or whichever port you develop locally with).
