Talks from the Tug Conference 2023 in Bonn
I recently had a coworker share a resume they had created with LaTeX. It was beautiful.
As someone not as interested in committing fully to LaTeX — but wanting a similar outcome — I found that I could achieve a pretty but easy to edit resume with Markdown and rendered via Pandoc because Pandoc supports LaTeX (among many other formats).
Here is a great GitHub repo that helped me get started: https://github.com/mszep/pandoc_resume
I would love to hear of other low(er) barrier-to-entry ways to use LaTeX, because it’s a pretty steep commitment for someone who isn’t a professional writer.

My FOSS desktop editor, KeenWrite[1], converts Markdown to XHTML, XHTML into TeX, then TeX into PDF. Users may drop into TeX itself for math, if needed. Behind the scenes, KeenWrite passes the document to ConTeXt along with a theme.[2] The theme abstracts away most of the complexities of TeX.
There isn't a resume theme, yet, though there are some available for ConTeXt that would be tempting to abstract.[3]
