Create an Interactive Table of Contents for a Next.js Blog with Remark
5 projects | dev.to | 21 Apr 2023

While some Remark plugins like Remark-toc provide this functionality, the generated table of contents is placed within the content itself, limiting its potential uses. For instance, on my blog, the table of contents is rendered outside the blog content, making it visible during post navigation. This is the type of table of contents we will build in this tutorial.
