A curriculum vitae maintained in plain text and rendered to html and pdf using CSS.
For more details see the project page or the blog post on why I switched to markdown for my CV.
To start, simply fork the markdown-cv repo
and then edit directly in github the index.md file
adding your skills, jobs and education.
To transform your plain text CV into a beautiful looking HTML page and share it you then have two options:
- Delete the existing
gh-pagesbranch from your fork. It will only contain this webpage. You can either use git or the github web interface - Create a new branch called
gh-pages(which will then be a copy of master) - Head to yourusername.github.io/markdown-cv to see your CV live.
Any change you want to make to your CV from then on would have to be done on the gh-pages branch and will be immediately rendered by Github Pages.
- install jekyll on your computer.
gem install jekyllwill do for most users. - Clone your fork on your computer
- Type
jekyll serveand you'll be able to see your CV on your local host (the default address is http://localhost:4000). - You can edit the
index.mdfile and see changes live in your browser. - To print a PDF, just press Print. Print and web CSS media queries should take care of the styling.
The included CSS renders CV in different styles:
kjhealythe original default, inspired by kjhealy's vita templatedavewhippis a tweaked version ofkjhealy, with bigger fonts and dates right aligned
To change the default style, one needs to simply change the variable in the
_config.yml file.
Any other styling is possible. More CSS style contributions and forks are welcome!
