What this demonstrates

The pattern uses real links inside a nav region. It does not apply desktop application menu roles to ordinary site navigation.

Keyboard notes

Tab follows source order. Enter follows a link. Focus remains visible against the page background. No script is needed for the displayed layout.

Common extension risk

A small-screen toggle must be a button with an accurate expanded state. Hidden links must not remain keyboard reachable.
