# Simple Technical Resume
Version 0.1.1
A simple technical resume template designed to fit within a page and work well with ATS. Inspiration was taken from [Jake's Resume](https://github.com/jakegut/resume/) and [sb2nov's Resume](https://github.com/sb2nov/resume/).
I created this Typst template because I was maintaining 8 resumes over LaTEX and making formatting/alignment changes took forever to achieve over all the LaTEX files (over 2-3 hours of endless trial & error). It took me over 30+ hours to create a perfectly formatted resume in 1 page (in LaTEX, using MikTex), being as dense as possible, while keeping margins barely visible. I had received positive feedback about the readibility of the resume and it was ATS-friendly as well. When I found about Typst, I was tempted to create a similar resume in Typst with the added benefit of maintenance being easier and templating being possible (unlike LaTEX).
# Sample Resume
# Quickstart
A bare-bones template to start making your resume is given below:
```typst
#import "@preview/simple-technical-resume:0.1.1": *
// Put your personal information here
#let name = "Dwight Schrute"
#let phone = "+1 (123) 456-7890"
#let email = "dschrute@dundermifflin.com"
#let github = "dwight-schrute"
#let linkedin = "dwight-schrute"
#let personal-site = "dwightschrute.com"
// Since the following arguments are within the `with` block,
// you can remove/comment any argument to fallback to the preset value and/or
// remove it.
#show: resume.with(
top-margin: 0.45in,
font: "New Computer Modern",
personal-info-font-size: 9.2pt,
author-position: center,
personal-info-position: center,
author-name: name,

linkedin-user-id: linkedin,

// size between two sections by specifying the `spacingBetween` argument.
