Spider-Man: Homecoming is now on Disney+ and that means it’s place on the MCU timeline has been revealed. Tom Holland’s first solo Spider-Man movie sits right between Black Panther and Doctor Strange in the chronological order of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Now, that actually makes a lot of sense because Peter Parker was basically a non-entity before the events of Captain America: Civil War. In that film, he was recruited by Tony Stark to be on the pro-registration/Sokovia Accords side of the conflict. Black Panther would naturally proceed it as T’Challa is also introduced in Civil War as well.

As the duo are together for a good chunk of Spider-Man: No Way Home and adventure together in space during Avengers: Infinity War. With the larger team on the rocks, they all had some time to do their own things before everything got blown up in Infinity War anyways.
