The Chapter Progress Tracker Userscript introduces an intuitive and interactive feature to enhance the browsing experience on Wikibooks. This script aims to assist users in tracking their progress through chapters while navigating Wikibooks pages.

Upon activation, the script dynamically adds a "Mark Section Complete" button adjacent to each section heading within Wikibooks chapters. Users can conveniently mark their completion of specific sections by clicking these buttons, allowing them to visually track their progress through the content.

Additionally, the Chapter Progress Tracker maintains a local storage record of completed sections, enabling users to seamlessly resume from where they left off across different sessions or visits to Wikibooks. As users navigate through the chapters and mark sections as completed, the script dynamically updates a progress indicator, displaying the ratio of completed sections to the total sections within the chapter.

By offering this tracking functionality, the Chapter Progress Tracker Userscript empowers users to manage their learning journey within Wikibooks, facilitating a structured and organized approach to chapter-based content exploration and aiding in efficient review and reference.
