A colorful resume template for Typst.

What does it look like?

The demo file showcases what it is possible to do. You can see the result in the corresponding PDF.

Quick usage guide

First of all, copy the template to your Typst project, and import it.

#import "template.typ": *

Then, call the resume in a global show rule function to use it. This function takes a few arguments that we explain in comments below:

#show: resume.with(
  // The title of your resume, generally your name
  name: "Your name",
  // The subtitle, which is the position you are looking for most of the time
  title: "What you are looking for",
  // The accent color to use (here a vibrant yellow)
  accent_color: rgb("f3bc54"),
  // the margins (only used for top and left page margins actually,
  // but the other ones are proportional)
  margin: 2.6cm,
  // The content to put in the right aside block
  aside: [
    = Contact

    // lists in the aside are right aligned
    - #link("mailto:example@example.org")
    - +33 6 66 66 66 66
  ]
)

// And finally the main body of your resume can come here

When writing the body, you can use level-1 headings as section titles, and format an entry with the entry function (that takes three content blocks as arguments, for title, description and details).
