[Feature Request] Table of contents

[rootkea]

Hello!

I'm new to (Hu)Go and just tried the Beautifulhugo theme and I really like it!

Often at times, when the technical article gets some considerable length it becomes cumbersome to jump around the article. It would be really cool if we could have the table of contents beside the post.

I'm mainly looking at the one provided by AllinOne theme.[0]
Even the one from er theme looks nice too.[1]

Thanks!

You may see gohugoio/hugo#1778 (comment) for the code block which addresses your problem, as well as my blog post for an example.

@pad92 Thank you for working on this! Eagerly waiting for the PR to land in BeautifulHugo. :)

sorry it's my turn to be busy

@pad92 It's okay :)

BTW, I think the theme should offer expandable table of contents beside the post such that the whole ToC or parts of it can be expanded or collapsed on user click allowing greater flexibility.
