`imprecv` is a no-frills curriculum vitae (CV) template for [Typst](https://github.com/typst/typst) that uses a YAML file for data input in order to version control CV data easily.

This is based on the [popular template on Reddit](https://web.archive.org/https://old.reddit.com/r/jobs/comments/7y8k6p/im_an_exrecruiter_for_some_of_the_top_companies/) by [u/SheetsGiggles](https://web.archive.org/https://old.reddit.com/user/SheetsGiggles) and the recommendations of the [r/EngineeringResumes wiki](https://web.archive.org/https://old.reddit.com/r/EngineeringResumes/comments/m2cc65/new_and_improved_wiki).

## Demo

See [**example CV**](https://github.com/jskherman/imprecv/releases/latest/download/example.pdf) and [@jskherman's CV](https://go.jskherman.com/cv):

 

  

   

  

  

   

  

 

## Usage

This `imprecv` is intended to be used by importing the template's [package entrypoint](cv.typ) from a "content" file (see [`template.typ`](template/template.typ) as an example).

In this content file, call the functions which apply document styles, show CV components, and load CV data from a YAML file (see [`template.yml`](template/template.yml) as an example).

Inside the content file you can modify several style variables and even override existing function implementations to your own needs and preferences.

### With the [Typst CLI](https://github.com/typst/typst)

The recommended usage with the Typst CLI is by running the command `typst init @preview/imprecv:1.0.1` in your project directory.

This will create a new Typst project with the `imprecv` template and the necessary files to get started.

You can then run `typst compile template.typ` to compile your file to PDF.

Take a look at the [example setup](https://github.com/jskherman/cv.typ-example-repo) for ideas on how to get started. It includes a GitHub action workflow to compile the Typst files to PDF and upload it to Cloudflare R2.

### With [typst.app](https://typst.app)

From the Dashboard, select "Start from template", search and choose the `imprecv` template.

From there, decide on a name for your project and click "Create".

You can now edit the template files and preview the result on the right.

You can also click the `Create project in app` button in [Typst Universe](https://typst.app/universe/package/imprecv) to create a new project with the `imprecv` template.
