What it does
Free, open-source academic CV builder. Auto-build your researcher CV from ORCID and OpenAlex, generate a formatted publication list, pick a citation style, and export to PDF, DOCX, LaTeX, Markdown or BibTeX.
SigmaCV builds your CV from OpenAlex and ORCID, then lays it out for NIH, ERC, MSCA, NSF, JSPS and more — choose a citation style once and every reference reformats. Export to PDF, Word, LaTeX or Markdown, or publish a public page that keeps itself up to date. Built for researchers who rebuild their CV for every grant — Word and LaTeX alike. We only read your public ORCID record — never post, never write anything back. ORCID is a free, permanent iD for researchers, run by a non-profit — it tells you apart from others who share your name and is how SigmaCV reliably finds your work. Registering is open to anyone, anywhere, and takes about a minute. Open source · Apache-2.0. SigmaCV reads only…from sigmacv.org

RenderCV – Open-source CV/resume generator, YAML to PDFDec 2025 · github.com · ▲100I built RenderCV because Word kept breaking my layout and LaTeX was overkill. I wanted my CV as a single YAML file (content, design, margins, everything) that I could render with one command. Run rendercv render cv.yaml → get a perfectly typeset PDF. Highlights: 1. Version-controllable: Your CV is just text. Diff it, tag it. 2. LLM-friendly: Paste into ChatGPT, tailor to a job description, paste back, render. Batch-produce variants with terminal AI agents. 3. Perfect typography: Typst under the hood handles pixel-perfect alignment and spacing. 4. Full design control: Margins, fonts, colors,…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Homebrew 6.0.0▲1,481Today, I’m proud to announce Homebrew 6.0.0. The most significant changes since 5.1.0 are a new tap trust security mechanism, the new faster, smaller, default internal Homebrew JSON API, sandboxing on Linux, better defaults informed by our user survey, many brew bundle improvements, improved performance and initial support for macOS 27 (Golden Gate). Happy to discuss any questions here!

Hi HN! I was super frustrated at apps like tiktok and wechat preventing me from saving or downloading the animated gifs, so I made a little tool to turn a screen recording into a slack-sized emoji. Hope you get some value from this!
