A modern tabular looking curriculum vitae LaTeX class.

Example

In the examples folder you'll find a template showcasing how to use this class. It makes use of UseLATEX and CMake to handle all LaTeX invocations.

$ cd leancv/examples
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make

This will generate your new cv document inside the build folder you just created. The output should look like this.

Issues and Proposals

I'm an absolute newbie at writing LaTeX classes/packages so I'm sure there are a number of things that can be improved. If you find something please open an issue suggesting changes and possibly even a pull request with your proposal.

Motivation

After many years of doing things in Microsoft Word and being sad about having to store every new version as a different file I decided to invest some time in moving things into LaTeX. Now I can manage my different CV versions with git. I call that a life improvement. 👍
