about Friggeri CV

Friggeri CV is an elegant Curriculum Vitae template for LaTeX/XeTeX originally written and released by Adrian Friggeri.

This work is a fork of cv-friggeri-x from Nadorrano

what's new

• inclusion of a photo in the aside box
• "skills" section with simple progressbars
• background command (and nobackground document class option to disable it)
• uses of fontawesome instead of marvosym
• new color-theme
• various improvements, tweaks and optimizations

changes brought by Nadorrano

• the default font (Helvetica) is replaced by the open source font Roboto from Google, available free of charge here
• A4 paper size is now available for the CV class. This option can be set in the document class declaration as usual, e.g.:

\documentclass[a4paper]{friggeri-cv}

• two new options for the document class are available, lightheader and nocolors. The former will remove the dark background on the header, the latter will remove all colors from the document. The old print option is deprecated but the same effect can be obtained by turning on the previous two options

• the "contact box" in the side section now shows informations on social networks with glyphs from the most common platforms including facebook, twitter, vk, linkedin

• names of articles, book, publications, etc. are now active links to actual contents (web pages, files...). You have to make sure an url field is specified in your bibliography entries to make this work.

examples
