Quarto + Typst Academic CV Template

Overview

A reproducible, data-driven academic CV template built with Quarto and Typst. Inspired by Andrew Heiss’s CV design.

Key features:

  • Data-driven: CV entries stored in YAML files and BibTeX, separated from formatting
  • Single command rendering: quarto render cv.qmd produces a polished PDF
  • Clean typography: Source Sans 3 font, grayscale palette, FontAwesome and Academicons icons
  • Smart author formatting: names auto-abbreviated (Last, F.), your name bolded, DOIs hyperlinked
  • No orphaned entries: blocks stay together across page breaks
