Description

I came across two 508 compliance issues that appear to be within groundwork and occur when pages are reduced for mobile mode. One is with the burger bar button that replaces the menu at the top of the page, and the other is with the select that replaces the sidebar.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the reported behavior of the mobile burger-bar menu button and the sidebar-replacement select in the React components at a reduced viewport. Inspect both controls against the reported 508 compliance concerns. Done means the two mobile controls meet the required accessibility behavior.
