While using Bootstrap's form validation classes like .is-invalid and .invalid-feedback, I noticed that screen readers (like VoiceOver or NVDA) do not consistently announce validation errors. It would improve accessibility to include aria-describedby or aria-live attributes to ensure error messages are read automatically.

Suggestion: Add ARIA attributes to form controls or feedback elements to improve screen reader compatibility.
