An elegant \LaTeX\ résumé template, compiled with \XeLaTeX. Inspired by

• zachscrivena/simple-resume-cv
• res

• paciorek's CV/Resume template
• How to write a LaTeX class file and design your own CV (Part 1) - ShareLaTeX

Features

• Easy to further customize or extend
• Full support for unicode characters (e.g. CJK) with \XeLaTeX\
• Perfect Simplified Chinese fonts supported with Adobefonts
• FontAwesome 4.6.3 support

Quick Start

• Fork this repository
• Add information about you directly in GitHub
• Compile TeX file to PDF with LaTeX.Online
• Can also use Overleaf for online compilation with template

Sample Output

• English PDF
• English with photo PDF
• 简体中文 PDF

Usage

1. Edit in Overleaf online Web template
2. Compile tex on your Computer

If you only need a résumé in English or have installed Adobe Simplified Chinese on your OS, It would be better to clone only the master branch, since the Simplified Chinese fonts files are too large.

git clone https://github.com/billryan/resume.git --branch master --depth 1 --single-branch <folder>

Branches

• master: English resume sources only. Use resume.tex or resume_photo.tex.
• zh_CN: Superset branch with bundled Chinese fonts and additional sources resume-zh_CN.tex and resume-zh_Slim.tex.

Windows Local Build

This repository now includes a Windows PowerShell build entrypoint at scripts/build-resume.ps1.

Requirements:

• Git
• PowerShell 5.1 or newer
• TeX Live (or another XeLaTeX distribution) with both xelatex and latexmk on PATH

Examples from the repository root:

.\scripts\build-resume.ps1 -Branch master -Target en
.\scripts\build-resume.ps1 -Branch master -Target photo
.\scripts\build-resume.ps1 -Branch zh_CN -Target zh
.\scripts\build-resume.ps1 -Branch zh_CN -Target zh-slim
.\scripts\build-resume.ps1 -Branch zh_CN -Target all

Behavior:

• If the current branch does not match -Branch, the script switches to the target branch before building.
• It removes LaTeX temporary files before branch switching and after successful builds.
• It keeps the generated PDF files and removes temporary files unless -KeepTemp is passed.

Target mapping:

• master: en, photo
• zh_CN: en, photo, zh, zh-slim

Linux Build With make

On Linux and other Unix-like environments, you can continue using the repository Makefile.

Common commands on master:

make en
make photo
make pdf
make clean
make clean-all

Notes:

• master is intended for English builds, so the practical targets are en, photo, and pdf.
• If you need Chinese builds on Linux, switch to the zh_CN branch and use its additional targets there.
