How to Highlight Active Navigation Links with Vanilla JavaScript

In this tutorial, you'll learn how to create a dynamic navigation system using Vanilla JavaScript. When you click on a navigation link, it gets highlighted, and we also check the current URL to keep the correct link active — even on page reload.

Plus, we use scrollIntoView() for a smooth scroll effect and manage classes cleanly using forEach and classList.

Perfect for landing pages or single-page applications!
