Research direction

Start by locating the responsive navigation dropdown implementation and reproducing the current close behavior. Review how stopPropagation and preventDefault are used, then define the interaction so clicking outside closes the menu while the existing button behavior still works. Done means the outside click closes the dropdown reliably without disrupting navigation.
