About the Onyx template
Onyx fills the left two-fifths of the page with a near-black sidebar that holds a ring-framed round photo, your profile, contact details, skills and languages in white. Every heading, in the sidebar and the main column alike, opens with a small icon, and education and experience run down a thin timeline with a dot at each entry.
