For handwritten sidebar definitions, you would provide metadata to sidebar items through `sidebars.js`; for autogenerated, Docusaurus would read them from the item's respective file. In addition, you may want to adjust the relative position of each item because, by default, items within a sidebar slice will be generated in **alphabetical order** (using file and folder names).
**For docs**: use additional front matter. The `label`, `className`, and `customProps` attributes are declared in front matter as `sidebar_label`, `sidebar_class_name`, and `sidebar_custom_props`, respectively. Position can be specified in the same way, via `sidebar_position` front matter.

**For categories**: add a `_category_.json` or `_category_.yml` file in the respective folder.

## Markdown page description {#markdown-page-description}
This feature is built on top of the Docusaurus [`<Head>`](./../../docusaurus-core.md#head) component. Refer to [react-helmet](https://github.com/nfl/react-helmet) for exhaustive documentation.
The Markdown pages' description metadata may be used in more places than the head metadata. For example, the docs plugin's [generated category index](../docs/sidebar/items.md#generated-index-page) uses the description metadata for the doc cards.
:::
By default, the description is the first content-ful line, with some efforts to convert it to plain text. For example, the following file...
```md
# Title
Main content... May contain some [links](./file.md) or **emphasis**.
```
...will have the default description "Main content... May contain some links or emphasis". However, **it's not designed to be fully functional**. Where it fails to produce reasonable descriptions, you can explicitly provide one through front matter:
```md

description: This description will override the default.

# Title
Main content... May contain some [links](./file.md) or **emphasis**.

## Markdown headings {#markdown-headings}
You can use regular Markdown headings.
```
## Level 2 title
### Level 3 title

Markdown headings appear as a table of contents entry.
## Heading ids {#heading-ids}
Each heading has an id that can be automatically generated or explicitly specified.
Heading ids allow you to link to a specific document heading in Markdown or JSX:
```md
[link](#heading-id)
```
```jsx
<Link to="#heading-id">link</Link>
```
### Generated ids {#generated-ids}
By default, Docusaurus will generate heading ids for you, based on the heading text. For example, `### Hello World` will have id `hello-world`.
Generated ids have **some limits**:
- The id might not look good
- You might want to **change or translate** the text without updating the existing id
### Explicit ids {#explicit-ids}
A special Markdown syntax lets you set an **explicit heading id**:
```md
### Hello World {#my-explicit-id}
```
:::tip
Use the **[write-heading-ids](../../cli.md#docusaurus-write-heading-ids-sitedir)** CLI command to add explicit ids to all your Markdown documents.

Each Markdown document displays a table of contents on the top-right corner. But it is also possible to display an inline table of contents directly inside a markdown document, thanks to MDX.
# Headings and Table of contents
## Full table of contents {#full-table-of-contents}

:::
:::caution Avoid colliding IDs
Generated heading IDs will be guaranteed to be unique on each page, but if you use custom IDs, make sure each one appears exactly once on each page, or there will be two DOM elements with the same ID, which is invalid HTML semantics, and will lead to one heading being unlinkable.

## Inline table of contents {#inline-table-of-contents}
Each Markdown document displays a table of contents on the top-right corner. But it is also possible to display an inline table of contents directly inside a markdown document, thanks to MDX.
The `toc` variable is available in any MDX document and contains all the headings of an MDX document. By default, only `h2` and `h3` headings are displayed in the TOC. You can change which heading levels are visible by setting `minHeadingLevel` or `maxHeadingLevel` for individual `TOCInline` components.

## Customizing table of contents generation {#customizing-table-of-contents-generation}
The table-of-contents is generated by parsing the Markdown source with a [Remark plugin](./markdown-features-plugins.mdx). There are known edge-cases where it generates false-positives and false-negatives.
Markdown headings within hideable areas will still show up in the TOC. For example, headings within [`Tabs`](./markdown-features-tabs.mdx) and [`details`](./markdown-features-intro.mdx#details) will not be excluded.
Non-markdown headings will not show up in the TOC. This can be used to your advantage to tackle the aforementioned issue.
```md
<details>
<summary>Some details containing headings</summary>
<h2 id="#heading-id">I'm a heading that will not show up in the TOC</h2>
Some content...
</details>
```
The ability to ergonomically insert extra headings or ignore certain headings is a work-in-progress. If this feature is important to you, please report your use-case in [this issue](https://github.com/facebook/docusaurus/issues/6201).
