Template Details
This repository provides CV templates in HTML format, aimed at users who want to generate PDF CVs themselves. The repository name and README indicate how it works: first write or modify an HTML template, then render the page into a PDF file using the wkhtmltopdf command-line tool. The example command given in the README is wkhtmltopdf templates/cv-01-software-developer-template.html media/cv_full_name.pdf, indicating that templates are stored in the templates directory and output files can be placed in the media directory.
The repository also provides steps for installing wkhtmltopdf on Ubuntu 16.04, as well as a test command for using wkhtmltopdf to capture a web page and generate a PDF. The templates themselves are static HTML and do not involve a backend or database. The repository uses the MIT license, and the code can be used, modified, commercially used, and distributed for free, but third-party assets such as demo images, fonts, and icons need to be checked separately for their licenses.

How this score is calculated
Our heuristic uses license records (up to 30), a demo link (12), a preview (10), stars (15), recorded maintenance (15), description completeness (8), feature records (5) and classification data (5). It is not a code, security or performance test, or a Google score. A link does not establish tested functionality.

A demo link is listed. Check it with your own content and viewport sizes; its presence does not confirm that forms, authentication or payments work.
The catalog identifies HTML as the primary stack. Check the actual dependency manifest and lockfile for versions and hosting requirements. These notes use recorded metadata, not a code audit or a deployment test.
