import BrowserWindow from '@site/src/components/BrowserWindow';

Each Markdown document displays a tab of content 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.

## Full table of contents {#full-table-of-contents}

The `toc` variable is available in any MDX document, and contains all the headings of a 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`.

```jsx
import TOCInline from '@theme/TOCInline';

<TOCInline toc={toc} />;
```

```mdx-code-block
import TOCInline from '@theme/TOCInline';

<BrowserWindow>

<TOCInline toc={toc} />

</BrowserWindow>
```

## Custom table of contents {#custom-table-of-contents}

The `toc` props is just a list of table of contents items:

```ts
type TOCItem = {
  value: string;
  id: string;
  children: TOCItem[];
  level: number;
};
```

You can create this TOC tree manually, or derive a new TOC tree from the `toc` variable:

```jsx
import TOCInline from '@theme/TOCInline';

<TOCInline
  toc={
    // Only show 3th and 5th top-level heading
    [toc[2], toc[4]]
  }
/>;
```

```mdx-code-block
<BrowserWindow>

<TOCInline toc={[toc[2], toc[4]]} />

</BrowserWindow>
```
