on the mobile viewport with the navigation sidebar collapsed the menu items are still available in the aural interface

Created on 28 August 2025, 8 days ago

Problem/Motivation

If you narrow down the browser to a mobile viewport so the navigation sidebar is collapsed and you then activate a screenreader (voiceover in my example) you will notice that buttons and form controls contain elements that are only available in the expanded navigation sidebar. Illustrated in menu_items.mp4

Steps to reproduce

  • narrow down the browser to a mobile viewport so the navigation sidebar is collapsed
  • active your screenreader

Proposed resolution

remove all the navigation module related buttons from the aural interface except the "expand sidebar collapsed" button

Remaining tasks

User interface changes

Introduced terminology

API changes
