Table of Contents VueJS Component

Table of contents is an essential element for organizing and navigating long documents or web pages. In VueJS, you can create a table of contents component to dynamically generate a list of links to different sections of your content. This allows users to easily navigate and find the information they need.

Creating the Table of Contents Component

To create a table of contents component in VueJS, you can use the following HTML code:

    
      <template>
        <div>
          <ul>
            <li v-for="section in sections">
              <a :href="`#${section.id}`" >{{section.title}}</a>
            </li>
          </ul>
        </div>
      </template>

      <script>
        export default {
          data() {
            return {
              sections: [
                { id: 'section1', title: 'Section 1' },
                { id: 'section2', title: 'Section 2' },
                { id: 'section3', title: 'Section 3' },
                // Add more sections as needed
              ]
            }
          }
        }
      </script>
    
  

This example code creates a simple table of contents component that iterates through an array of sections and generates a list of links with their respective titles.

Using the Table of Contents Component

Once you have created your table of contents component, you can then use it in your VueJS application by simply including it in the template of any page or document that requires a table of contents:

    
      <template>
        <div>
          <table-of-contents/>
          <section id="section1">
            <h2>Section 1</h2>
            <p>Content of section 1</p>
          </section>
          <section id="section2">
            <h2>Section 2</h2>
            <p>Content of section 2</p>
          </section>
          <section id="section3">
            <h2>Section 3</h2>
            <p>Content of section 3</p>
          </section>
        </div>
      </template>

      <script>
        import TableOfContents from './TableOfContents.vue';

        export default {
          components: {
            TableOfContents
          }
        }
      </script>
    
  

In this example, the table of contents component is included at the top of the page template and is followed by the different sections of the content. When the page is rendered, the table of contents will generate a list of links to navigate to each section.
