I really love tools that treat documents as code. I have been trying to move my workflows away from binary formats (like PPT & Word) to text based ones I can more easily version control.
Does this support custom CSS for the layout or is it bound to the YAML templates?
It’s completely flexible. However, it's not done through CSS. We use Typst to generate PDFs, and we template Typst files using Jinja2 from YAML. You can override the built-in Typst templates; see the guide here: https://docs.rendercv.com/user_guide/how_to/override_default...
Ah makes sense, using Typst under the hood for strict layout control compared to CSS. Thanks for the link to the override guide and I'll check it out.
