What is this?
This is an elegant LaTeX resume/CV template compiled with XeLaTeX, designed to be easy to customize and extend.
Is this a ready PDF or do I need to compile it myself?
It's LaTeX source files that you edit and compile into a PDF yourself, either locally or online.
How do I get my resume built from this?
Fork the repository, add your own information directly in the .tex files on GitHub, then compile it online with Overleaf or LaTeX.Online, or compile locally with XeLaTeX.
Do I need a LaTeX installation on my computer to use this?
Not necessarily — you can edit and compile entirely online via Overleaf, or install XeLaTeX locally if you want to compile on your own machine.
What's the catch with the Simplified Chinese fonts?
If you only need the resume in English, you should clone just the master branch, since the Chinese font files are large; full Simplified Chinese support requires the zhCN branch or having Adobe's Simplified Chinese fonts installed.
Is there a separate version for Chinese users?
Yes, there's a dedicated zhCN branch specifically for a Simplified Chinese resume.
What fonts and icon support does it include?
It uses Adobe fonts for clean Simplified Chinese typography and bundles FontAwesome 4.6.3 for icons in the resume.
What other templates inspired this one?
It was inspired by projects like zachscrivena/simple-resume-cv, JianXu's CV, and paciorek's CV/Resume template, among others listed in the README.
Does it support languages other than English?
Yes, it fully supports Unicode characters including CJK via XeLaTeX, with sample outputs provided in English and Simplified Chinese.
