+**Solution:** Add `aria-live` regions or use `useAnnounce` hook
+
+### Issue: Keyboard Trap in Modal
+**Solution:** Use `useFocusTrap` hook and ensure Escape key closes modal
+
+### Issue: Poor Color Contrast
+**Solution:** Update CSS variables to meet WCAG AA standards (4.5:1)
+
+### Issue: Icon Button No Label
+**Solution:** Add `aria-label` or `aria-labelledby` attribute
+
+### Issue: Form Errors Not Announced
+**Solution:** Link errors with `aria-describedby` and use `role="alert"`

+✅ **Compliant**
+
+## 🤝 Contributing Accessible Code
+
+When adding new features:
+
+1. **Use semantic HTML** - Button for actions, links for navigation
+2. **Add ARIA labels** - Especially for icon buttons
+3. **Test keyboard navigation** - Ensure your component is fully keyboard accessible
+4. **Check color contrast** - Use tools to verify ratios
+5. **Test with screen reader** - At least quick test with NVDA/VoiceOver
+6. **Use accessibility hooks** - Leverage our provided hooks for common patterns
+7. **Document shortcuts** - Add new shortcuts to KeyboardShortcutsDialog
+
+### Example: Accessible Button
+
+```typescript
+<Button 
+  onClick={handleSave}
+  aria-label="Save invoice"
+  disabled={isSaving}
+>
+  <FloppyDisk aria-hidden="true" />
+  Save
+</Button>
+```
+
+### Example: Accessible Form Field
+
+```typescript
+<div>
+  <Label htmlFor="email">Email Address</Label>
+  <Input
+    id="email"
+    type="email"
+    required
+    aria-required="true"
+    aria-describedby={error ? "email-error" : undefined}
+  />
+  {error && (
+    <span id="email-error" role="alert">
+      {error}
+    </span>
+  )}
+</div>
+```

+## useFocusTrap
+
+Traps keyboard focus within a container, useful for modals and dialogs.
+
+### Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { useFocusTrap } from '@/hooks'
+
+function MyDialog({ isOpen }) {
+  const containerRef = useFocusTrap(isOpen)
+
+  return (
+    <div ref={containerRef}>
+      {/* Dialog content */}
+    </div>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### Parameters
+
+- `enabled: boolean` - Whether focus trap is active (default: `true`)
+
+### Returns
+
+- `containerRef: RefObject<HTMLElement>` - Ref to attach to the container element
+
+### Description
+
+When enabled, this hook:
+- Prevents Tab from moving focus outside the container
+- Wraps focus from last to first focusable element (and vice versa)
+- Only affects elements that are naturally focusable
+
+---
+
+## useFocusReturn
+
+Saves and restores focus when opening/closing modals or navigating views.
+
+### Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { useFocusReturn } from '@/hooks'
+
+function MyModal({ isOpen, onClose }) {
+  const { saveFocus, restoreFocus } = useFocusReturn()
+
+  useEffect(() => {
+    if (isOpen) {
+      saveFocus()
+    }
+  }, [isOpen])
+
+  const handleClose = () => {
+    restoreFocus()
+    onClose()
+  }
+
+  return <Dialog onClose={handleClose}>...</Dialog>
+}
+```
+
+### Returns
+
+- `saveFocus: () => void` - Saves the currently focused element
+- `restoreFocus: () => void` - Restores focus to the previously saved element
+
+### Description
+
+This hook helps maintain focus context when users interact with overlays, ensuring screen reader users don't lose their place.
+
+---
+
+## useAnnounce
+
+Announces messages to screen readers without visual indication.
+
+### Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { useAnnounce } from '@/hooks'
+
+function MyComponent() {
+  const announce = useAnnounce()
+
+  const handleSave = () => {
+    // Save logic...
+    announce('Changes saved successfully')
+  }
+
+  const handleError = () => {
+    // Error handling...
+    announce('Error: Unable to save changes', 'assertive')
+  }
+
+  return <button onClick={handleSave}>Save</button>
+}
+```
+
+### Parameters
+
+- `message: string` - The text to announce
+- `priority: 'polite' | 'assertive'` - Announcement priority (default: `'polite'`)
+

+
+---
+
+## useReducedMotion
+
+Detects if user prefers reduced motion.
+
+### Usage
+
+```typescript

+      transition={{ duration: prefersReducedMotion ? 0 : 0.3 }}
+    >
+      Content
+    </motion.div>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### Returns
+
+- `prefersReducedMotion: boolean` - True if user prefers reduced motion
+
+### Description

+
+---
+
+## useAriaLive
+
+Creates and manages an ARIA live region for announcements.
+
+### Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { useAriaLive } from '@/hooks'
+
+function MyComponent() {
+  const announce = useAriaLive()
+
+  useEffect(() => {
+    // Announce when data loads
+    announce('Data loaded successfully')
+  }, [data])
+
+  return <div>...</div>
+}
+```
+
+### Returns
+
+- `announce: (message: string) => void` - Function to announce messages
+
+### Description
+
+Creates a persistent live region element that screen readers monitor. Messages are cleared after 1 second to prevent repetition.
+
+---
+
+## useKeyboardShortcuts
+
+Register and manage keyboard shortcuts.
+
+### Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { useKeyboardShortcuts } from '@/hooks'
+
+function MyComponent() {
+  const shortcuts = [
+    {
+      key: 's',
+      ctrl: true,
+      description: 'Save document',
+      action: () => handleSave()
+    },
+    {
+      key: 'k',
+      ctrl: true,
+      shift: true,
+      description: 'Open command palette',
+      action: () => setCommandPaletteOpen(true)
+    }
+  ]
+
+  const { showHelp, setShowHelp } = useKeyboardShortcuts(shortcuts, true)
+
+  return (
+    <>
+      {/* Your content */}
+      {showHelp && <KeyboardShortcutsDialog shortcuts={shortcuts} />}
+    </>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### Parameters
+
+- `shortcuts: KeyboardShortcut[]` - Array of shortcut configurations
+- `enabled: boolean` - Whether shortcuts are active (default: `true`)
+
+### KeyboardShortcut Interface
+
+```typescript
+type KeyboardShortcut = {
+  key: string           // Key to trigger (e.g., 's', 'Enter', 'Escape')
+  ctrl?: boolean        // Requires Ctrl/Cmd key
+  shift?: boolean       // Requires Shift key
+  alt?: boolean         // Requires Alt key
+  meta?: boolean        // Requires Meta key
+  description: string   // Human-readable description
+  action: () => void    // Function to execute
+}
+```
+
+### Returns
+
+- `showHelp: boolean` - Whether help dialog should be shown
+- `setShowHelp: (show: boolean) => void` - Control help dialog visibility
+- `shortcuts: KeyboardShortcut[]` - The registered shortcuts
+
+### Description
+
+- Automatically handles Ctrl/Cmd distinction between platforms
+- Press `Ctrl+?` or `Cmd+?` to toggle help dialog
+- Prevents default browser behavior for registered shortcuts
+
+---
+
+## useSkipLink
+
+Creates a "skip to content" link for keyboard navigation.
+
+### Usage
+
+```typescript
+import { useSkipLink } from '@/hooks'
+import { useRef } from 'react'
+
+function App() {
+  const mainContentRef = useRef<HTMLElement>(null)
+  
+  useSkipLink(mainContentRef, 'Skip to main content')
+
+  return (
+    <>
+      <nav>...</nav>
+      <main ref={mainContentRef} id="main-content">
+        {/* Main content */}
+      </main>
+    </>
+  )
+}
+```
+
+### Parameters
+
+- `targetRef: RefObject<HTMLElement>` - Ref to the main content element
+- `linkText: string` - Text for the skip link (default: `'Skip to main content'`)
+
+### Description
+
+Creates an invisible link at the top of the page that becomes visible when focused. Allows keyboard users to skip repetitive navigation and jump directly to main content.
+
+The skip link:
+- Is visually hidden by default
+- Becomes visible when focused via keyboard
+- Positions itself at the top-left of the viewport
+- Sets focus to the target element when activated
+
+---
+
+## Best Practices
+
+### Focus Management
+
+1. **Always trap focus in modals**
+```typescript
+const containerRef = useFocusTrap(isOpen)
+```
+
+2. **Return focus when closing overlays**
+```typescript
+const { saveFocus, restoreFocus } = useFocusReturn()
+```
+
+### Screen Reader Announcements
+
+1. **Use polite announcements for success messages**
+```typescript
+announce('Invoice created successfully', 'polite')
+```
+
+2. **Use assertive announcements for errors**
+```typescript
+announce('Error: Failed to save changes', 'assertive')
+```
+
+3. **Don't over-announce** - Only announce important state changes
+
+### Keyboard Navigation
+
+1. **Provide keyboard shortcuts for common actions**
+```typescript
+{
+  key: 's',
+  ctrl: true,
+  description: 'Save',
+  action: handleSave
+}
+```
+
+2. **Document shortcuts in help dialog**
+3. **Don't override browser shortcuts** (Ctrl+T, Ctrl+W, etc.)
+
+### Motion Preferences
+
+1. **Always check for reduced motion preference**
+```typescript
+const prefersReducedMotion = useReducedMotion()
+const duration = prefersReducedMotion ? 0 : 0.3
+```
+
+2. **Provide instant alternatives to animations**
+
+### Skip Links
+
+1. **Always include skip link on pages with navigation**
+2. **Make sure target has correct ID**
+3. **Place skip link as first element in DOM**
+
+---
+
+## Complete Example
+
+```typescript
+import { 
+  useFocusTrap, 
+  useFocusReturn, 
+  useAnnounce,
+  useKeyboardShortcuts,
+  useReducedMotion 
+} from '@/hooks'
+
+function AccessibleModal({ isOpen, onClose, onSave }) {
+  const containerRef = useFocusTrap(isOpen)
+  const { saveFocus, restoreFocus } = useFocusReturn()
+  const announce = useAnnounce()
+  const prefersReducedMotion = useReducedMotion()
+
+  useEffect(() => {
+    if (isOpen) {
+      saveFocus()
+    }
+  }, [isOpen])
+
+  const handleClose = () => {
+    restoreFocus()
+    onClose()
+  }
+
+  const handleSave = () => {
+    onSave()
+    announce('Changes saved successfully')
+    handleClose()
+  }
+
+  useKeyboardShortcuts([
+    {
+      key: 's',
+      ctrl: true,
+      description: 'Save changes',
+      action: handleSave
+    },
+    {
+      key: 'Escape',
+      description: 'Close modal',
+      action: handleClose
+    }
+  ], isOpen)
+
+  if (!isOpen) return null
+
+  return (
+    <div
+      ref={containerRef}
+      role="dialog"
+      aria-modal="true"
+      aria-labelledby="modal-title"
+      style={{
+        transition: prefersReducedMotion ? 'none' : 'opacity 0.3s'
+      }}
+    >
+      <h2 id="modal-title">Edit Item</h2>
+      {/* Modal content */}
+      <button onClick={handleSave}>Save</button>
+      <button onClick={handleClose}>Cancel</button>
+    </div>
+  )
+}
