About the Jade template
Jade paints a column of the accent down the left third of the page and leaves the rest white. The column starts with empty colour and carries the skills as a bulleted list in white, then the degree, each section it holds divided from the last by a thin pale rule. The white page opens on the name in a large plain line with the phone, email and address beneath it, each after a small dark disc with a white icon, then the summary and the work history. Every heading, one the writer adds included, is bold capitals in the page's dark on the white side and in white on the teal one, with nothing drawn under it. A role opens on its dates in a small italic line, then the title in bold, then the employer in bold with the city after a bar, then bullets; a degree opens on its year in italics, then the school in bold, then the award with its field after a colon. Recolouring the accent repaints the column, and only the column, so the page stays a page of dark type. It suits a photographer, a designer or anyone whose skills list is the first thing a client reads.
