Musicians struggle to understand how to construct chord progressions that work within specific musical modes

Musicians and music theory students lack clear, practical guidance on how to voice chords and create smooth voice leading while staying within the constraints of different modes (Ionian, Dorian, Phrygian, etc.). Existing resources are either too theoretical without practical application, or too simplistic to handle the nuanced rules of modal harmony. This creates frustration when trying to compose or improvise music that sounds cohesive within a chosen mode.
