BUG: Sticky Sidebar Navigation Fix

Describe the bug

Bug Description : The left sidebar navigation scrolls away together with the main page content. Since the page contains a large number of APIs and long sections, users lose access to the sidebar while scrolling down. To navigate to another API category, users must scroll all the way back to the top of the page, which creates a poor user experience and makes navigation inefficient.

Suggested Fix : Implement a sticky or fixed sidebar layout using CSS (position: sticky or position: fixed) along with proper height and overflow handling.

To Reproduce

  1. Open the FreeAPI website.
  2. Navigate to a page containing multiple API categories and long content sections.
  3. Start scrolling down through the API listings.
  4. Observe that the left sidebar navigation scrolls away with the page content.
  5. Continue scrolling further down the page.
  6. Try navigating to another API category using the sidebar.
  7. Notice that the sidebar is no longer visible, requiring the user to scroll back to the top of the page.

Expected behavior

The sidebar should remain visible while scrolling, allowing users to quickly switch between API categories without returning to the top of the page.
