Route Announcer in <ViewTransitions />

The View Transitions router now does route announcement. When transitioning between pages with a traditional MPA approach, assistive technologies will announce the page title when the page finishes loading. This does not automatically happen during client-side routing, so visitors relying on these technologies to announce routes are not aware when a page has changed.

The view transitions route announcer runs after the astro:page-load event, looking for the page <title> to announce. If one cannot be found, the announcer falls back to the first <h1> it finds, or otherwise announces the pathname. We recommend you always include a <title> in each page for accessibility.

See the View Transitions docs for more on how accessibility is handled.
