" summary

Repository includes 40+ a11y PRs and version 13 ships a focused accessibility audit: autofocus no longer a boolean but autofocus accepts CSS selector for precise focus targets, visual contrast and high‑contrast Windows fixes, and remaining work on tricky controls like the date picker. The library migrates to MDC Web primitives and version 12+ enables inline SASS and an automated ng update that migrates @import to @use, prepping future CSS custom properties after IE11 deprecation.
