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.
This seems to me, to be simpler than LATEX, but still good enough for a resume.
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)
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 (∵ lesser CPU cycles), but it has lesser functionality features.

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
