Ask ten people how to write a resume, and you'll get twenty opinions.
There is no right or wrong way to put together a resume. There are just ways that person A like more, and ways that person B likes more. And you never know how or what a specific company or person wants.

If you have 15 years exp and the position is for 10 years of exp ,then ?

True. Thanks

DO NOT MAKE THE TYPEFACE SMALLER TO FIT MORE. I run with 16pt and I've had many Senior-level people tell me thank you because after looking at a few resumes the words on the page kind of all run together.

i.e. apply for jobs instead of thinking for weeks whether it is fine or not, should you apply or you shouldn't. Whether font size is 11, 12 or 13 is fine, or you better would go with 16 - it is absolutely nothing.

Gap(s) between projects, jobs or whatever? As long as you have an explanation which makes sense - it is perfectly fine either way. If you say you took a break so you could drink - that's not fine. If you say you had a break because you travelled around the world with your best friend - that's great.
If you have many of those gaps and they tend to happen very often and don't have yourself logical explanation what's going on - that might be a worry.

And if a contract covered a couple of projects the timescales don't get mentioned there either.
Single projects, well, the timescale is implicit in the contract length.
For example:
Jan 2019 - Aug 2020 - Some Airline Ltd
Lead developer on several extensions to Some Airline Ltd website (brief desc of general areas).
These projects covered the use of Spring, JEE, web services, and followed a TDD strategy blah blah blah
The highlighting depends on what I'm going for.
