A Perfect Table of Contents With HTML + CSS

Creating a great looking table of contents for your website doesn't have to be hard. All you need is a little bit of HTML and CSS, and you can create a perfect table of contents that will look great on any page.

Creating Your Table of Contents

The first step in creating a perfect table of contents is to set up the structure for the table of contents in HTML. You can do this by creating an unordered list of links pointing to the sections that make up the table of contents, like this:

• Introduction
• Body of the Page
• Conclusion

Once you have the HTML structure for the table of contents set up, you can start adding some basic styling with CSS. We can start by adding some borders around the table of contents, like this:

ul {  
  border: 1px solid #ccc;  
  padding: 10px;  
}  
li {  
  margin: 5px 0;  
  list-style-type: none;  
}

Now that your table of contents has some basic styling, it's time to add some visual enhancements to make it stand out more. We can add some hover effects, as well as a box-shadow to make the table of contents look more polished.

li a {  
  color: #333;  
  text-decoration: none;  
  transition: all .3s ease;  
    &:hover {  
    color: #666;  
    box-shadow: 2px 2px 3px #ccc;  
  } 
}

And that's it! With just a few lines of HTML and CSS, you can create a perfect table of contents for your website that looks great and is easy to navigate. So go ahead and give it a try on your next project!
