## Description

### Steps to reproduce

1.  Login as a user to OpenProject.
    
2.  Visit any page with a left-hand menu
    
3.  Scan the page with the [AXe DevTools](https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/lhdoppojpmngadmnindnejefpokejbdd?utm_source=item-share-cb) browser extension.
    

### What is the buggy behavior?

*   AXe DevTools reports that buttons should have discernible text - this error occurs because the left-hand menu toggler has neither text or applicable ARIA labels.
    

### What is the expected behavior?

1.  AXe DevTools should not report the "ensure buttons have discernible text" error for this button.
    
2.  The button should have an accessible name (`aria-label`) making its purpose clear.
    
3.  The button should also have indicate its current state via `aria-expanded`.
