I was on Word, then LibreOffice Writer.
Now thinking of making it a markdown source, with CSS styling to get an HTML based PDF. This way, the same source can be used on a webpage with different generation code.

There is a standard called json-resume with a lot of generators for html and pdf or react-resume which is more like a CMS (not entirely sure about spelling, to lazy to search for it now)

  But I need to add that I never made it work for me because they are not really good for scientific CVs

  Interesting, but not appealing to me.
  I have already been enchanted by discount and mesmerised by kramdown.

I like this idea. What tool do you use for converting the markdown to html?

  kramdown and discount are 2 fun little tools.
  
  kramdown is more fully featured and is a Ruby Gem.
  
  discount is made in C and is more suitable if you are using it in an on-the-fly render process, but it has lesser functionality.
