Introduction to tocbot

tocbot is a JavaScript library that generates a table of contents from HTML content, allowing users to navigate documents easily with scrolling synchronization.

It uses native DOM methods, has no dependencies, and works in any browser with JavaScript enabled.

The library can be installed via npm with the command: npm install tocbot -S.

Usage involves initializing the library with parameters such as the toc selector, content selector, heading selector, and optional ignore selector.

The library processes headings, creates a nested array, renders the table of contents, and handles scrolling synchronization.

Code examples demonstrate the library's structure, methods like selectHeadings, nestHeadingsArray, render, and jump for smooth scrolling.

Key features include automatic scrolling to headings, fixed sidebar offset, and scroll synchronization.
