Demo: Hide Sidebar & Table of Contents

Live demonstration of combining hide_sidebar and hide_toc for a centered reading layout.

This page demonstrates combining hide_sidebar: true and hide_toc: true. Both navigation panels are hidden, creating a clean, centered reading layout.

What’s Happening

Both the sidebar and table of contents are hidden. Here is the frontmatter used:

Clean Reading Experience

With both panels removed, the content is centered on the page in a narrower container. This layout is ideal for:

• Landing pages
• Standalone articles
• Focused reading content
• About pages

Mobile Navigation

Even with both panels hidden, the mobile hamburger menu still provides full navigation access. Readers are never stranded without a way to navigate.

Subsection Example

This subsection shows that headings still render normally — they simply don’t appear in a table of contents.

When to Use

Combine both options when you want maximum focus on the content itself, with no surrounding navigation panels.

See the Frontmatter reference for full documentation.
