Miter vs Reactive Resume: at a glance
What is Miter?
Miter's November digest takes job photos, material costs and safety records into the field
Miter ships one large digest every month or two, organized by module. The November update is field-heavy: Photos 2.0 in the mobile app with markup and map pins, material logs that post costs to the job and Project Intelligence budgets, job templates, and public safety profiles for contractor prequalification. Payroll adds a missed-deductions report and Spend adds virtual Miter cards.
What is Reactive Resume?
Reactive Resume's Android app reaches users, with a Play-signed APK for sideloading.
Reactive Resume, the open-source resume builder, now has an Android app in production on Google Play, and release 1.0.2 also ships as a universal APK signed by Google Play that can update a store install. The October entries were the groundwork: prebuilt Forme native binaries for mobile builds, an Android SDK fix in CI, and documentation for cover-letter PDF and DOCX export.

Miter's November digest takes job photos, material costs and safety records into the field
◆ Current state
Miter ships one large digest every month or two, organized by module. The November update is field-heavy: Photos 2.0 in the mobile app with markup and map pins, material logs that post costs to the job and Project Intelligence budgets, job templates, and public safety profiles for contractor prequalification. Payroll adds a missed-deductions report and Spend adds virtual Miter cards.
◆ Where it's heading
After the summer's Accounts Payable module and API 2.0, and October's Project Intelligence budgets, Miter is tying field activity back to job costing. Material logs feeding budgets and activity-driven GL coding both point toward Miter as the system of record for job cost, not only payroll.
◆ Prediction
Expect more field data sources to post into job costing and Project Intelligence, since November connects materials and activities to the GL.
Reactive Resume's Android app reaches users, with a Play-signed APK for sideloading.
◆ Current state
Reactive Resume, the open-source resume builder, now has an Android app in production on Google Play, and release 1.0.2 also ships as a universal APK signed by Google Play that can update a store install. The October entries were the groundwork: prebuilt Forme native binaries for mobile builds, an Android SDK fix in CI, and documentation for cover-letter PDF and DOCX export.
◆ Where it's heading
The project is moving from a web-only builder to web plus mobile, with Android first and a separate release track tagged by build number. Offering a direct APK keeps the app reachable for users outside the Play Store, in line with its self-hostable roots.
◆ Prediction
Expect frequent Android point releases as the app settles; an iOS build is not visible in these entries, so whether one follows is unclear.
