Pandoc Templates: a searchable catalogue of Pandoc templates

The site pandoc-templates.org collects Pandoc templates in a single searchable index, grouped by output format and by document type.

What it is

Pandoc converts documents between formats — Markdown to PDF, LaTeX, DOCX, EPUB and others — and the output is shaped by templates. Those templates live in many separate repositories, which makes finding one for a specific job slow. The index currently lists 80 templates, and each entry shows the template name, its author, a short description, the formats it supports, a link to its GitHub repository, a star count and the time since the last update.

How it is organised

Results can be sorted by title, stars, last update or newest releases, and filtered by format: LaTeX, PDF, HTML, DOCX, EPUB, PPTX, ODT, reveal.js, ICML and Terminal. Document types include article, book, dissertation or thesis, letter, CV or résumé, presentation, paper, website, cookbook, invoice, manuscript, poem, homework or exam, handout and grant writing.

What is in the catalogue

The most-starred entry is Eisvogel, a LaTeX template for converting Markdown to PDF or LaTeX that is aimed at lecture notes and exercises with a focus on computer science and is compatible with Pandoc 3; it has about 7,300 stars. Other widely used entries include The Markdown Resume (about 1,775 stars), a Markdown framework for a PhD thesis (about 1,273), Pandoc book template (about 474) and pandoc-letter (about 441).

Several entries are actively maintained: an academic template for HTML, DOCX, EPUB, PDF, PPTX and LaTeX output was updated four days before the snapshot of the page, while Eisvogel, pandoc-thesis and pandoc-lecture were last updated about three months earlier.

Who made it

The site is made by Pascal Wagler, the author of Eisvogel, and its source code is published on GitHub. The footer records a last update of 22 September 2026.
