moderncv is a LaTeX class for producing clean, contemporary CVs and résumés with minimal effort and consistent typography. It ships with multiple style variants and color themes, plus high-level macros for entries (education, experience, skills, publications) so you can focus on content rather than layout. The class supports optional headshots, icons, sidebars, and fine-grained spacing controls to adapt the look from compact academic to more visual design-oriented profiles. Because it’s LaTeX, you get professional line breaking, hyphenation, and math/typesetting when needed, along with reproducible PDF output. Templates demonstrate common patterns like multi-column sections and concise bullets that fit well on a page without crowding. It plays nicely with BibLaTeX for publications and can be built via standard toolchains on any platform. For people who like version-controlled documents and precise layout, moderncv remains a go-to choice.
