Online CV

Online CV is a beautifully minimal Jekyll theme purpose-built for creating a professional online resume. With over 3,300 GitHub stars it is one of the most popular resume themes in the Jekyll ecosystem.

The entire CV is driven by a single _data/data.yml file — you simply fill in your details, and the theme handles all the rendering. No HTML editing required. Skills are displayed as clean progress bars, work history is laid out in a clear timeline, and the whole page is designed to print cleanly as a PDF.

The design is deliberately restrained — a light sidebar holds your photo, contact details, and skills, while the main content area walks through your professional experience and education in a clear, readable format that recruiters and hiring managers appreciate.

Who is it for? Developers, designers, and professionals who want a polished online CV hosted free on GitHub Pages, without needing to touch a line of HTML.
