# CV Generator
|
|
|
|
Generate a polished PDF CV from a Markdown file with YAML frontmatter.
|
|
|
|
The CV data (work experience, education, skills, etc.) is defined as structured YAML frontmatter, while the cover letter is written as regular Markdown below it. The tool renders everything into a styled PDF using Jinja2 templates and WeasyPrint.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
The `example/` directory contains a sample CV for Albert Einstein, applying to the Swiss Patent Office in 1902.
|
|
|
|
| Cover Letter | CV |
|
|
|---|---|
|
|
|  |  |
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
uv run cv path/to/your_cv.md
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
To specify a custom output path:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
uv run cv path/to/your_cv.md -o output.pdf
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Markdown File Format
|
|
|
|
The input file uses YAML frontmatter for structured data and Markdown for the cover letter body. See `example/alberteinstein.md` for a complete example.
|
|
|
|
Photo and signature paths are resolved relative to the Markdown file's location.
