Accessibility notes

  • Ensure sufficient contrast when using #A6BCC4 (Light Slate Gray) for text on mid-tone blue backgrounds; always test for readability.
  • Always verify contrast ratios for all text and interactive elements to meet WCAG AA or AAA standards, especially for small text on dark backgrounds.
  • Be mindful that subtle tonal shifts between #0A1C2C and #2E475C might not provide enough distinction for all users; use other cues for interactive elements.
