I am making PDF with LaTeX. I have a few sections and subsections. I want to put a link towards the top of the document so that in the PDF someone can click on it and it'll go to that section/subsection. I know it's possible to have this with a linkable table of contents, but I don't want to make a table of contents, I need more control.

Links to a web address or email can added to a LaTeX file using the \url command to display the actual link or \href to use a hidden link and show a word/sentence instead. There are two commands in the example that generate a link in the final document: \href{http://www.overleaf.com}{Something Linky}
You can add a hyperlink into your LaTeX article using the command \usepackage{hyperref} and then including the command \href{YOUR URL}{TEXT FOR YOUR HYPERLINK}.
In order to add a link with a description (i.e. making a word clickable), you should use the href command like so: %... This is my link: \href{http://www.latex-tutorial.com}{LaTeX-Tutorial}.
In a website, a hyperlink (or link) is an item like a word or button that points to another location. When you click on a link, the link will take you to the target of the link, which may be a webpage, document or other online content. Websites use hyperlinks as a way to navigate online content.
Include \usepackage{hyperref} in the preamble of your document. Assign proper labels to your sections and reference these labels using \ref{}. These references will then be turned into clickable links when creating PDFs with pdflatex.
