Basic CV with Photo

This is a template for a simple resume with an optional photo. The original template is taken from stuxf which in turn has taken inspiration from Jake's Resume and guided-resume-starter-cgc. I hope this template can be useful to others as well. The original author does not seem to be taking pull requests anymore.

This fork adds the option for a photo. Additionally, it contains PR#40 fixing the em dashes in the dates.

Install this locally (instead of the official version) by running just install-preview.

Sample Resume

Quick Start

A barebones resume looks like this, which you can use to get started.

#import "@preview/basic-cv-with-photo:0.2.11": *

// Put your personal information here, replacing mine
#let name = "Stephen Xu"
#let location = "San Diego, CA"
#let email = "stxu@hmc.edu"
#let github = "github.com/stuxf"
#let linkedin = "linkedin.com/in/stuxf"
#let phone = "+1 (xxx) xxx-xxxx"
#let personal-site = "stuxf.dev"

#show: resume.with(
  author: name,
  // All the lines below are optional.
  // For example, if you want to to hide your phone number:
  // feel free to comment those lines out and they will not show.
  location: location,
  email: email,
  github: github,
  linkedin: linkedin,
  phone: phone,
  personal-site: personal-site,
  accent-color: "#26428b",
  font: "New Computer Modern",
  paper: "us-letter",
  author-position: left,
  personal-info-position: left,
  // Uncomment the lines below for a European-style CV header: your name,
  // job title and contact info on the left, with a circular profile photo
  // on the right.
  // jobtitle: "Software Engineer",
  // header: "vertical",
  // profile-image: read("profile.jpg", encoding: none),
)

// ... more headers and stuff below

Profile Photo Header

Setting header: "vertical" switches to a two-column header — name, job
title and contact info on the left, with a circular profile photo on the
right.

#show: resume.with(
  author: name,
  jobtitle: "Software Engineer",
  header: "vertical",
  profile-image: read("profile.jpg", encoding: none),
  // ... the rest of your options
)

profile-image defaults to none (no photo), and is only valid together
with header: "vertical".
