Description
It's rather difficult to navigate the README. I often find myself searching for a heading with CTRL+F, but that doesn't work so well as the terms appear throughout. A Table of Contents would solve this issue.
D3 has nice ones that look like this:

First steps
- Read the whole issue, then the project's contributing guide.
- Comment on the issue to say you are picking it up — it saves two people doing the same work.
- Fork the repository and make your change on a branch.
- Open a pull request that references the issue number.
Research direction
Start with the repository README and review its existing headings and structure. Add a Table of Contents matching the README sections, then verify that its links navigate to the intended headings.
