If you’ve ever spent more time fighting LaTeX than writing about your research, QuartoCV is for you. It combines Quarto’s literate programming model with a smart GNU Make build system that tracks which source sections changed and rebuilds only the affected PDFs — so editing a single shared section automatically propagates across every document that includes it.

The template ships with two distinct style variants and three ready-to-use example documents:

• Academic style — two-column compact layout with bold section labels, 8pt typography, and tight spacing optimized for fitting a lot onto a page cleanly
• Consulting style — single-column standard margins with centered headers for a cleaner, more modern look

Key features:

• Modular sections/ directory — edit one .qmd file, every CV that includes it rebuilds automatically
• Intelligent incremental builds via Makefile dependency tracking
• XeLaTeX engine for publication-quality typographic output
• Easily customizable fonts, margins, and spacing through YAML front matter
