GitHub Markdown Sidebar Menu

GitHub README documents don't always include a Table of Contents. Well-documented repos have longer documents that can be difficult to navigate. This extension will automagically generate and add a navigation menu with a table of contents in GitHub repo homepage sidebar.

Click on a link to scroll to that section of the document. That's it!

Permissions requested:

- Read and change your data on github.com

This extension is scoped and enabled only when accessing https://github.com/*. This extension looks for Markdown headers, generates a navigation menu and adds it to Markdown views on GitHub.

- Read your browsing history

For this extension to work across page navigations within github.com, permissions are necessary to use chrome.webNavigation.onHistoryStateUpdated. This lets the extension hook into page navigations and trigger without full page refreshes.
