The sidebar scroll position was not preserved when navigating between pages, especially in the develop-docs sidebar. Three issues fixed: 1. Add missing ScrollActiveLink to DevelopDocsSidebar (was only in product sidebar) 2. Fix click handler using hasAttribute instead of closest(), which never fired because click targets are child elements inside the link 3. Store scrollContainer.scrollTop directly instead of fragile getBoundingClientRect math, and remove scroll handler that was overwriting click data with stale active link positions Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Fix sidebar scroll position not being preserved when navigating between pages. Particularly noticeable on smaller screens (e.g. MacBook Pro 14") when navigating within a section like
/development-infrastructure/.Three bugs fixed:
