Preview custom themes during development #44

Closed naskio closed 5 months ago

I want to know if there's a way to preview a custom theme during development, if not then it would be great to provide a way to achieve that.

Hello! Unfortunately, this is not possible because $\LaTeX$ itself doesn't have this feature. You need to run RenderCV again whenever you want to see the updated version.

Additionally, I suggest developing a new theme with a $\LaTeX$ editor first, like Overleaf. And when you're happy with the result, you can move the code to RenderCV. For example, the classic theme is already in Overleaf, and you can play with it to develop your custom theme.
