What is the outline panel?
Markably makes it easy to navigate your documents through our smart navigation system - the outline. It intelligently parses your document structure and automatically builds a tree navigator for you to jump around your document in a few simple clicks.
Think of the outline as a table of contents that is automatically extracted from your markdown document as you type it out.
