liteformats

CRAN status R-CMD-check

liteformats provides lightweight, carefully typeset document formats for litedown. The first formats are a professional resume and a two-column cover letter. They use HTML and CSS, paginate with a packaged copy of Yihui Xie’s pages.js, and require neither Pandoc nor LaTeX.

Installation

You can install the development version of liteformats from GitHub with:

# install.packages("pak")
pak::pak("nanxstats/liteformats")

Usage

Resume

Create the resume starter, then render it to self-contained HTML or PDF:

liteformats::use_resume("resume.Rmd")
liteformats::resume("resume.Rmd", "resume.html")
liteformats::resume("resume.Rmd", "resume.pdf")

Cover letter

Use the matching cover_letter() renderer for the cover letter starter:

liteformats::use_cover_letter("cover-letter.Rmd")
liteformats::cover_letter("cover-letter.Rmd", "cover-letter.html")
liteformats::cover_letter("cover-letter.Rmd", "cover-letter.pdf")

HTML output is self-contained. A .pdf output path prints the HTML through headless Chrome, which must be installed to create PDFs but is not needed for HTML output.
