Hierarchy of suttas as a bookmark tree

Dear friends,

Since I’ve started studying the suttas just recently, I wanted to have a high level overview to make it easy to navigate the entire structure in a table of contents -like manner, so I created the entire tree of AN, MN, SN, DN, and some parts of KN as an HTML file that can be imported as Bookmarks into a browser, but I found it works best with the Raindrop app, which also allows to display the descriptions (blurb) for each sutta which are readily available in the HTML.

I wanted to share this with the community. Please feel free to download and use it from here: Raindrop.io Bookmarks

Thank you so much for making this wonderful structured data available.

Thanks for sharing.

Although the file is made to be imported as bookmarks, people curious just to see what it looks like can use this preview link:

Dear Snowbird, thank you for doing that. Sometimes I assume something will be obvious, when it is maybe obvious to just me. I’m adding a photo below to give a graphical illustration too.

Thanks for sharing. This is absolutely wonderful.

For anyone looking for this hierarchical structured navigation within the SuttaCentral interfacce, you may wish to install the SuttaCentral Chrome/FireFox/Edge extension.

Thanks @gbbr for this wonderful compilation.

Interesting that you say this, I have not seen such a feature in the extension even though I am using it for a while now. I only see settings with regards to styling and minor functionality adjustments. Are you sure it is the same thing?

I recommend reading through each option carefully. There may be more good things already waiting for you :face_with_peeking_eye:

BTW, this menu is Ven. @Pasanna’s creation. All the bugs are mine, though.

Some of those bugs are surely mine! :stuck_out_tongue:

Oh that’s lovely. I do remember seeing that before. Nice to see all the ways in which people work.
