Description

While chatting about documentation, we noticed that the permalinks in heading titles are labeled with an aria-label="Anchor". These should be renamed/restructured so that the titles are more meaningful to assistive tech users, e.g. when navigating the content by links.

Example: inspect headings on https://open-ui.org/charter

Research direction

Inspect how heading permalinks are generated across the documentation pages, using the charter page as the example. Verify the resulting accessible names when navigating headings by links, and consider the work done when the names identify their associated headings rather than being announced as “Anchor”.
