In today’s digital age, having an online presence is crucial, especially when it comes to professional endeavors. One effective way to showcase your skills, experiences, and accomplishments is by creating a compelling curriculum vitae (CV).  In this article, we are going to build a CV using HTML, and CSS. Later, we will host it on GitHub, a popular platform for version control and code hosting. So let’s dive in and unlock the power of HTML and GitHub to craft a standout CV that truly represents your capabilities and accomplishments.

Approach

  • Link CSS in the HTML head section, creating a structured layout for the resume using div blocks.
  • Utilize five div blocks within the left section for Image, Contact, Skills, Language & Hobbies, populating each with relevant data.
  • Incorporate five div blocks within the right section for Name, Summary, Experience, Education & Project, utilizing list and table elements.
  • Apply class names like (.left) and (.right) in the CSS file for background color and positioning, ensuring a cohesive design.
  • Implement the display flex property in the body and grid for the entire page layout, optimizing responsiveness and visual appeal.

Example: In this example code, we are using the above approach.
