February 2026 (2026-02): Delivered Accessibility Improvements for the Drop-down Kit and Multi-Level Select Kit within powerhome/playbook. Implemented ARIA attributes and wired labels, improved screen-reader announcements and keyboard focus behavior, and added a label-driven interaction where clicking a label opens the dropdown, highlights sections, and reads the label and current option with VoiceOver. Bonus: introduced a drop-down toggle activated by label clicks. Fixed accessibility warnings/ARIA errors and prepared the components for Milano review and upcoming release.
