I will likely ditch Vivaldi for this one tab groups gets implemented. It has all the features I need and I've been looking for a non-chromium browser to switch to for a while. Floorp was close but missing critical features. Zen is very exciting for me.

I use OneCommander and it works pretty well. The dev just added a single window mode with tabs as well.

Someone already mentioned Logseq, but I'm really enjoying Obsidian for my note taking needs. It's similar, but I have found Obsidian to be very nice. Not FOSS, but I really like what the devs are doing.

I really like it. I think it's on the right path as a competitor/successor to latex. I would agree with some of barbara's comments on it's age and maturity. It's being worked on by a lot of people and is open source which is cool. https://github.com/typst/

Overall it's easy to get started but there's a decent bit to learn like with any language. Creating templates like this is much, much easier though than it is in latex IMO. Overall I'm a fan and I'm slowly phasing out everything I've written in latex and am replacing it with typst.

Hi open source community!

This is a follow up to a previous post where I got a lot of really good feedback on this resume template. I've made some changes to the template that takes much of the feedback into account and I also added some new features that should make the template more useable for a wide variety of people.

If you have any further feedback please feel free to share!

To use this template on the typst web app, see here: https://typst.app/universe/package/modern-cv

Some screenshots of what the template looks like/can produce.

I'm working on some of the changes your suggested. Here are screenshots of the adjustments. I'm curious to hear your thoughts. Thanks!

Here is a monochrome version without colored headers. I also adjusted the default accent color, but this is user configurable as well.

Thanks for all the feedback! I'll take each point into consideration as I work on the next version of the template :)

Overall it was pretty nice honestly. Especially coming from Latex. Creating a template in Latex was very difficult but in typst it's way more intuitive (at least to me) and it's easy to control every aspect of the text and its layout.

I put this together in a few minutes using my template. Does this address what you meant?

Here's the typst code:

#import "@preview/modern-cv:0.1.0": *

#show: resume.with(
  author: (
      firstname: "Person", 
      lastname: "Lastname",
      email: "email@email.com", 
      phone: "111-111-1111",
      github: "DeveloperPaul123",
      linkedin: "LinkedIn Name",
      address: "111 Road Dr. City, Place 111111",
      positions: (
        "Software Engineer",
        "Software Architect"
      )
  ),
  date: datetime.today().display()
)

= Experience

#resume-entry(
  title: "Company, Inc.",
  location: "Place, Earth",
  date: "2022 - 2023"
)

#secondary-justified-header(
  "Developer",
  "June 2023 to August 2023"
)

#resume-item[
  - #lorem(10)
  - #lorem(11)
]

#secondary-justified-header(
  "Analyst",
  "March 2021 - May 2022"
)

#resume-item[
  - #lorem(10)
  - #lorem(11)
]

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?

[-] devpaul@lemmy.world 6 points 8 months ago

Thanks for the feedback! I think this makes sense for those who do have work experience. Do you think this should still be the case for new graduates?

Also I should note you can easily change the order of things in your own CV.

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.

Are you saying it's not worth becoming a freelancer if you don't already have connections ?

Just wanted to share my C++20 thread pool implementation. Based on my testing, it's one of the fastest implementations out there with a decent feature set. Development work is ongoing and I'm always looking for more suggestions and contributors!
