A Python application that creates CVs in PDF, HTML, LaTeX, etc., from a JSON/YAML input file.
A Python application that creates a $\LaTeX$ CV as a PDF from a JSON/YAML input file. Currently, it only supports one theme (classic), which can be seen [here](https://github.com/sinaatalay/rendercv/blob/main/John_Doe_CV.pdf?raw=true). More themes are planned to be supported in the future.
**What does it do?**
- It parses a YAML (or JSON) file that looks like this:
```yaml
cv:
name: John Doe
label: Mechanical Engineer
location: Geneva, Switzerland

highlights:
- AmIACompany is a technology company that provides web-based engineering applications
that enable the simulation and optimization of products and manufacturing tools.
- Modeled and simulated a metal-forming process deep drawing using finite element
analysis with open-source software called CalculiX.
```
- It validates the input, such as checking if the dates are consistent, checking if the URLs are correct, warning if there are any spelling mistakes, etc.
- Then creates a $\LaTeX$ file.
- Then renders the $\LaTeX$ file to generate the PDF, and you don't need $\LaTeX$ installed on your PC because the packages come with [TinyTeX](https://yihui.org/tinytex/).
