Hugo will automatically parse the markdown for your content and create
a Table of Contents you can use to guide readers to the sections within
your content.
## Usage
Simply create content like you normally would with the appropriate
headers.
Hugo will take this markdown and create a table of contents stored in the
[content variable](/layout/variables) .TableOfContents
## Template Example
This is example code of a [single.html template](/layout/content).
{{ template "chrome/header.html" . }}
<div id="toc" class="well col-md-4 col-sm-6">
{{ .TableOfContents }}
</div>
<h1>{{ .Title }}</h1>
{{ .Content }}
{{ template "chrome/footer.html" . }}
