Re: Burger Menus and necessary ARIA support

Like Bryan said, the ARIA menu is notoriously difficult to code. Not only do you have to include the proper ARIA roles, states, and properties, but you have to deal with managing focus and all of the keyboard event listeners. I am totally on board with using aria-expanded on the menu button and ditching aria-haspopup connected to an ARIA menu.

I, too, would like to hear about what others think are the differences between a menu and a list of links in this context.
