The entries for the sections "work experience" and "education" are stored as markdown files in src/entries/work

.
Delete the demo files in there and create your own. The text should describe your responsibilities, learnings or achievements. Include the following frontmatter data:

and change the YOUR_GITHUB_USERNAME
var to your Github username.
Edit entries/content/custom.md
if you want to edit freeform content to the end of the CV. This could be a legal disclaimer or an additional section. Delete the file if you don't want this section to show up.

.
