Hi there!
Adding a Blog Posts block and setting them to display as a list could create index-type content on any page:

Is this what you were looking for?

A reader had contacted me and asked if there was an index he could use so it’d be easier to choose items to read – maybe like a table of contents. Since I’ve never seen anything like this since I’ve been on WordPress, I thought I’d ask if such a thing exists like maybe a piece of code that would take a user to a list of indexes by category and they could choose what they want to read from there and as a sidebar kind of thing that’s seen as a reader reads a published piece?
I dunno… and I know I wouldn’t want to code it if it could be…

Hi there,
For simply a list of posts published on the site, you can create a page on your site, and use the Blog Posts Block like staff-mckluskey suggested above. You can configure that block to simply list the post titles.
If you want posts arranged by category, you can use multiple Blog Posts blocks, each configured to show posts from a different category. In this case I’d also use heading blocks before each one to identify the category.
The other option is the Archive block or the Categories block. The former simply creates a list of all published posts on the site, while the latter shows a list of categories, and clicking on a category takes you to the archive page showing all posts published in that category.
