Try this

listOfChapters.sort((a,b)=>a.weight-b.weight).map(p=>p.title)

listOfChapters.sort((a,b)=>a.weight-b.weight) will sort your array (mutate) in ascending order by weight

This code may work, but there is no explanation as to why it works. Consider providing one so it can help others understand what it does. It also isn't advised to answer on questions that have been marked as duplicate, unless your answer provides something other than the answers in the linked duplicate. – Kobe Jul 25 '19 at 13:32
