How to link to part of the same document in Markdown?

Question

I am writing a large Markdown document and would like to place a table of contents of sorts at the beginning that will provide links to various locations in the document. Ho

This may be out-of-date thread but to create inner document links in markdown in Github use...
(NOTE: lowercase #title)

    # Contents
     - [Specification](#specification) 
     - [Dependencies Title](#dependencies-title) 

    ## Specification
    Example text blah. Example text blah. Example text blah. Example text blah. 
Example text blah. Example text blah. Example text blah. Example text blah. 
Example text blah. Example text blah. Example text blah. Example text blah. 
Example text blah. Example text blah. 

    ## Dependencies Title
    Example text blah. Example text blah. Example text blah. Example text blah. 
Example text blah. Example text blah. Example text blah. Example text blah. 
Example text blah. Example text blah. Example text blah. Example text blah. 
Example text blah. Example text blah. 

A good question was made so I have edited my answer;

An inner link can be made to any title size using - #, ##, ###, #### I created a quick example below... https://github.com/aogilvie/markdownLinkTest
