We have several menus in the UI and no common Menu component, e.g.:

  • Locale selector on Login Page
  • Page-level menu on Home Page
  • User Avatar menu
  • ..

We should create a Menu component that is keyboard accessible and shows focus state appropriately.

This can then be placed in to the above places to help address accessibility issues, rather than fixing them multiple times.

Check w3c guidelines for correct behaviour of a menu:

(Note, these seem to be contradictory, so need to make sure we have the correct pattern)
