tocMagic

tocMagic is a JavaScript library designed to automatically generate a table of contents for web pages. It scans a page's existing HTML structure, identifies headings (such as h1, h2, h3 tags), and then creates a navigable list of links that correspond to these headings. This allows users to quickly jump to different sections of a document without having to scroll through the entire page.

The library is known for its ease of implementation. Typically, developers only need to include the tocMagic JavaScript file and initialize it on a specific HTML element or the entire document body. The library then handles the process of parsing, generating, and inserting the table of contents into the designated area. Customization options are usually available, allowing users to control the appearance, depth of headings included, and behavior of the generated table of contents.

tocMagic is often used on blogs, documentation sites, long articles, and any web content where a clear navigational structure is beneficial. Its primary goal is to improve user experience by enhancing discoverability and accessibility of content. The library is generally lightweight and aims to have minimal impact on page load times.
