Description

Currently, when selecting an item from the top menu, the content is changed below, but there is no indicator about this for screen readers.

The focus should also move to the title of the contents section below.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Add ARIA attributes (e.g., aria expanded) to menu items and ensure focus moves to the content title when a menu item is selected. Use JavaScript to manage focus with tabindex and focus(). Test with a screen reader.
