\nbut additional pages could be added when the need arose, \ne.g. a long publication list, or many stations along the way.\n\nAdditionally I liked the idea of having a cover letter template,\nwhich resembles most of the elements of the CV.\n\nI am now at a stage where I consider it functional,\nand ready to use by other people than me.\n\nHere is one example of what is possible so far. \nYou will surely notice some of the design elements from the list above.\n\n\u003cimg src=\"examples/two-page-letter/main.page-1.png\" alt-=\"CV\" width=\"200\"\u003e \u003cimg src=\"examples/two-page-letter/main.page-2.png\" alt-=\"CV (cont.)\" width=\"200\"\u003e \u003cimg src=\"examples/two-page-letter/main.page-3.png\" alt-=\"Cover Letter\" width=\"200\"\u003e\n\n## Usage\n\nFor a detailed description, please refer to the documentation, which is located in\n[`doc/latex/polycv.pdf`](./doc/latex/polycv.pdf), or can alternatively be build from \nthe source files.\nInstall the class file [`tex/latex/polycv.cls`](./tex/latex/polycv.cls) in a directory,\nwhich is searched by latex, or alternatively, build it from the source files.\nThe [examples](./examples) directory contains a few template files.\n\nIf anything is unclear, needs improvement, is missing,\nplease submit an [issue](https://github.com/polyluxus/polycv/issues).\nThank you.\n\n## Building the package\n\nTo compile the document class, simply run `pdflatex` on the `polycv.ins` source file in\n[`source/latex`](./source/latex) and copy the resulting `polycv.cls` file to a \ndirectory searched by latex.\n\nTo compile the documentation, run `pdflatex` on  the `polycv.dtx` source file in the same\ndirectory. To build the index and changes, run the following two lines:\n```\nmakeindex -s gglo.ist -o polycv.gls polycv.glo\nmakeindex -s gind.ist -o polycv.ind polycv.idx\n```\nRun `pdflatex` on the source file, until no more warnings appear.\n\nBoth derived files are included for convenience in their respective directories.\n\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpolyluxus%2Fpolycv","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fpolyluxus%2Fpolycv","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fpolyluxus%2Fpolycv/lists"}
