Hi all,

I made this typst template originally to port my personal resume to typst from Latex. It tries to be a faithful port of the Awesome-CV latex template that I was previously using. Hope you find it useful.

Please don't color part of a word blue and part of a word black

This is interesting as I simply copied the same styling as the previous template I was using. Would it be better to highlight the entire first word instead of the first n letters?

All of those headings are single words.

Taste is subjective, but mine says either color the whole heading or don't color it at all.

Black only. Either bold or italics if you feel the need to add emphasis.

Most resumes are parsed by tools and you'll never see fancy formatting anyways.

[-] PowerCrazy@lemmy.ml 12 points 7 months ago

This type of resume isn't for the tools, it's for the humans who glance at the resume before the interview.

I've used the template this is based on before. I just set the default color to black and modified the word to be all bold.

I appreciate that OP did a perfect port though.
