+### Modal
+
+Renders a Modal component, controllable through events.
+To use the component, import `Modal` only once and then display it by passing a boolean value to the `isVisible` attribute.
+
+* Use object destructuring to set defaults for certain attributes of the modal component.
+* Define `keydownHandler`, a method which handles all keyboard events, which can be used according to your needs to dispatch actions (e.g. close the modal when <kbd>Esc</kbd> is pressed).
+* Use `React.useEffect()` hook to add or remove the `keydown` event listener, which calls `keydownHandler`.
+* Use the `isVisible` prop to determine if the modal should be shown or not.
+* Use CSS to style and position the modal component.
