LapisCV is a resume template that lets you write and format a resume using Markdown, a simple plain-text format that uses symbols like asterisks and hash signs to indicate bold text, headings, and lists. The template works inside three popular Markdown editors: VSCode, Typora, and Obsidian. Once you have edited your resume content, you export it as a PDF file directly from whichever editor you are using. The template comes with two visual styles: a standard version and a serif version added in version 2.0. Both produce clean, professional-looking documents. The README includes screenshots showing how the output looks and how the editor interface appears while writing. Installation works differently in each editor. In Typora, you copy the CSS theme files into Typora's theme folder, restart the editor, select the theme, and then export to PDF with specific margin settings. In VSCode, you open the downloaded folder, install a PDF export plugin, and configure the style through a settings file. In Obsidian, you open the included folder as a new Vault and export from there. The template supports several formatting details beyond basic text. You can add a profile photo using a standard HTML image tag. A set of small icons for things like contact information can be inserted using special Unicode codes. Page breaks are inserted with three dashes. Page numbers, margins, and fonts are all configurable by editing CSS variables in the style file, so you can adjust the layout to fit more or less content on a page or change colors and type sizes to match your preferences. The repository is bilingual, with a Chinese README available alongside the English one. It is aimed at anyone who is comfortable writing in Markdown and wants a polished resume output without using a dedicated resume builder application.
