How to Add a Table of Contents to Blogs with Nimble Publisher in Elixir
Philip Brown provides a step-by-step guide on integrating a Table of Contents into blog posts using Nimble Publisher, an Elixir package for Markdown publishing. He starts by setting up a new Elixir project with Nimble Publisher and walks through creating Markdown files with meta attributes and content separated by a specific separator. He introduces the concept of parsing these files to extract headings and convert them into a Table of Contents structure. Additionally, Brown discusses appending this Table of Contents at the top of each document and the process of linking each section to appropriate headers using Earmark for HTML conversion. He also explains the customization of the Earmark processor to adjust 'h2' HTML nodes for anchor links, making it easier for readers to navigate long articles. Brown's comprehensive tutorial underlines the versatility and extensibility of Nimble Publisher in Elixir projects.
