Comment on Show HN: A no-frills CV template using Typst and YAML to version control CV data

Comments

Looks cool! I do something similar for myself just using markdown and git

So the biggest problem is to actually render your cv. For this I use https://ohmycv.app. Its a nice (free) editor, and you can write CSS for the styling, works great. I source control the markdown and CSS, i have multiple versions of the same CV, so I can change content while keeping the format the same.

May I ask how you did it? I went with Typst because I found Markdown to be too unstructured/limiting and didn't want to use LaTeX (hard to use data from external files: CSV, YAML, JSON, etc.) templates to compensate.
