# Curriculum Vitae for Alan Orth
|
||
A CV written in LaTeX using the [moderncv](http://www.ctan.org/pkg/moderncv) class.
|
||
|
||
## Sample
|
||
Here's what it looks like with real data, using the "classic" style and blue color scheme:

|
||
|
||
## Why
|
||
I decided to start keeping my CV in LaTeX because:
|
||
|
||
* I can never find my CV when I need it
|
||
* I have dozens of files named `resume.doc` on my computer
|
||
* LaTeX → PDF ensures a consistent, beautiful layout
|
||
* Writing your CV in a source-based language means you can track it in git (w00t!)
|
||
|
||
## Usage
|
||
To "build" a PDF you simply type:
|
||
|
||
$ make
|
||
|
||
To clean up all generated and intermediate content, type:
|
||
|
||
$ make clean
|
||
|
||
## Pre-requistes for building
|
||
Depending on your GNU/Linux distribution the package names may be different. Basically, you need the `texlive` package, as well as whichever "extras" package contains the moderncv stuff.
|
||
|
||
__On Arch Linux:__
|
||
|
||
$ sudo pacman -Sy texlive-core texlive-latexextra
|
||
|
||
__On Fedora:__
|
||
|
||
$ sudo yum install texlive texlive-moderncv
|
||
|
||
__On Ubuntu:__
|
||
|
||
$ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:texlive-backports
|
||
$ sudo apt-get install texlive
|
||
$ sudo apt-get --no-install-recommends install texlive-latex-extra
|
||
|
||
__Mac OS X:__ download and install [BasicTeX](https://www.tug.org/mactex/morepackages.html) (a minimal TeXLive distribution) and then:
|
||
|
||
$ export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/texlive/2017basic/bin/x86_64-darwin
|
||
$ sudo tlmgr update --self
|
||
$ sudo tlmgr install collection-fontsrecommended
|
||
$ wget https://launchpad.net/moderncv/trunk/1.5.1/+download/moderncv-1.5.1.zip
|
||
$ unzip moderncv-1.5.1.zip
|
||
$ sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/texlive/2017basic/texmf-local/tex/latex/moderncv
|
||
$ sudo cp moderncv/*.sty moderncv/*.cls /usr/local/texlive/2017basic/texmf-local/tex/latex/moderncv
|
||
$ sudo mktexlsr
