=================
## About
**Awesome Source Latex CV** is based on a CV template created by Alessandro Plasmati. The original template use _XeLaTeX_ engine and _[Fontin Sans](http://www.exljbris.com/fontinsans.html)_ font.
More informations about the original Alessandro Plasmati template can be found here :
- [ Scribd ](http://fr.scribd.com/doc/16335667/Writing-your-Professional-CV-with-LaTeX)
- [ LaTeX Templates ](http://www.latextemplates.com/template/plasmati-graduate-cv)
- [ ShareLatex ](https://www.sharelatex.com/templates/cv-or-resume/professional-cv)
**Personal data** has moved on top of the first page just before the position and _[Fontin Sans](http://www.exljbris.com/fontinsans.html)_ font has been replaced by _[Source Sans Pro Font](https://github.com/adobe-fonts/source-sans-pro)_ from Adobe. _[Font Awesome](http://fontawesome.io/)_ icons are used to highlight important elements.
Unlike _Alessandro Plasmati_ CV template, all layout stuff in **Awesome Source Latex CV** has moved in the Latex class file _awesome-source-cv.cls_.

## How to use **Awesome Source CV** latex class
### Construct the header
Outside of the `\socialinfo` wrapper you have to define the mandatory parameters `\name` and `\tagline`.
```latex
% Define author's name
% Usage: \name{}{}
% Mandatory
\name{Christophe}{ROGER}
% Define author's photo (optional)
% Usage \photo{}{}
\photo{2.5cm}{darwiin}
% Define author's tagline
% Usage: \tagline{}
% Mandatory
\tagline{Chef de projet IT}
```
Most social network have their command to render a clickable link or a simple text entry.
```latex
% Render author's linked-in (optional)
% Usage: \linkedin{}
\linkedin{christopheroger}
% Render author's viadeo(optional)
% Usage: \viadeo{}
\viadeo{christopheroger}
% Render author's github (optional)
% Usage: \github{}
\github{darwiin}
% Render author's email (optional)
% Usage: \email{}
\email{christophe.roger@mail.com}
```
Put these command in the `\socialinfo` wrapper. Feel free to add `\\` when you want to force a new line.
```latex
\socialinfo{
\linkedin{christopheroger}
\viadeo{christopheroger}
\github{darwiin}\\
\smartphone{+687 123 456}
\email{christophe.roger@mail.com}\\
\address{2 Rue du quartier, 98765 Ville, Pays}\\
\infos{Né le 23 septembre 1982 (34 ans) à Nouméa, Nouvelle-Calédonie}
}
```
Use the `\makecvheader`command to generate the header.
```latex
\makecvheader
```
### Construct the _experiences_ section
To describe your experiences you have first to declare the `experiences` environment
```latex
% Begin a new experiences environment to use experience and consultantexperience macro
\begin{experiences}
% Here's go your experiences
\end{experiences}
```
Then you can describe your experiences using **\experience** and **\consultantexperience** entries. Each
entry must be separated by the **\emptyseparator**
```latex
% Begin a new experiences environment to use experience and consultantexperience macro
\begin{experiences}
% The experience entry work as below and can be used to describe a job experience
\experience
{End date} {Experience title}{Enterprise}{Country}
{Begin date} {
experience details
\begin{itemize}
\item Item 1: _Item 1 description_
\item Item 2: _Item 2 description_
\item Item 3: _Item 3 description_
\end{itemize}
}
{Technology highlights}
% The emptyseparator macro is used to create white space in your experience
\emptySeparator
% The consultantexperience macro is very similar to the experience macro, but offer you
% the possibility tu put client details
\consultantexperience
{End date} {Experience title}{Enterprise}{Country}
{Begin date} {Client job title}{Clent enterprise}
{
experience details
\begin{itemize}
\item Item 1: _Item 1 description_
\item Item 2: _Item 2 description_
\item Item 3: _Item 3 description_
\end{itemize}
}
{Technology highlights}
\end{experiences}
```
