How to use the template

The template has the following arguments:

Start single column version

If you want to use the single column version, you create a new .typ file and copy the following code:

#import "@preview/modernpro-cv:1.0.2": *
#import "@preview/fontawesome:0.5.0": *

#show: cv-single.with(
  font-type: "PT Serif",
  continue-header: "false",
  name: [],
  address: [],
  lastupdated: "true",
  pagecount: "true",
  date: "2024-07-03",
  contacts: (
    (text: [#fa-icon("location-dot") UK]),
    (text: [#fa-icon("mobile") 123-456-789], link: "tel:123-456-789"),
    (text: [#fa-icon("link") example.com], link: "https://www.example.com"),
  )
)

Start double column version

The double column version is similar to the single column version. However, you need to add contents to the specific left and right sections.

#import "@preview/modernpro-cv:1.0.2": *
#import "@preview/fontawesome:0.5.0": *

#show: cv-double(
  font-type: "PT Sans",
  continue-header: "true",
  name: [#lorem(2)],
  address: [#lorem(4)],
  lastupdated: "true",
  pagecount: "true",
  date: "2024-07-03",
  contacts: (
    (text: [#fa-icon("location-dot") UK]),
    (text: [#fa-icon("mobile") 123-456-789], link: "tel:123-456-789"),
    (text: [#fa-icon("link") example.com], link: "https://www.example.com"),
  ),
  left: [
    // contents for the left column
  ],
  right:[
    // contents for the right column
  ]
)

Start the CV

Once you set up the arguments, you can start to add details to your CV / Resume.

I preset the following functions for you to create different parts:

Function	Description
`#section("Section Name")`	Start a new section
`#sectionsep`	End the section
`#oneline-title-item(title: "", content: "")`	Add a one-line item (Title: content)
`#oneline-two(entry1: "", entry2: "")`	Add a one-line item with two entries, aligned left and right

`#twoline-item(entry1: "", entry2: "", entry3: "", entry4: "")`	Two line items, similar to education and job experiences
`#references(references:())`	Add a reference list. In the `()`, you can add multi reference entries with the following format `(name: "", position: "", department: "", institution: "", address: "", email: "",),`
`#show bibliography: none #bibliography("bib.bib")`	Add a bibliography. You can modify the `bib.bib` file to add your publications. Note: Keep this at the end of your CV

Note: Use + @ref to display your publications. For example,

#section("Publications")

// numbering list 
+ @quenouille1949approximate
+ @quenouille1949approximate

// Keep this at the end
#show bibliography: none
