Very cool project! The Latex version is based on the awesome modern cv template. If you prefer not to install the massive TeX package on your computer you can use the online apps like ShareLatex[0] and WriteLatex[1] both of which have templates that you can use to get a CV ready in no time.

As someone who has read hundreds of resumes filling positions, I've got to admit this is not a great template, IMHO. I don't (and shouldn't) care about a candidate's picture/logo and the horizontal rules just burn more space. This strikes me as a template for someone that is trying to take up space.

Frankly, the hackerb.io template is something I'd prefer to read.


even something slick like this[0] can be generated using json_resume. Just a new template has to be given.

+1 i have given the user to opt for WriteLatex (which i found so awesome) if pdflatex or moderncv is not found on the machine.
