Accessibility notes

  • Crucially, text color must provide significant contrast with these extremely light backgrounds; black or very dark gray is mandatory.
  • Avoid using #AFAFAF for text on #F8F8F8, #E0E0E0, or #C8C8C8 due to insufficient contrast.
  • Interactive elements should have distinct hover or focus states that provide clearer contrast, possibly using #979797.
  • Use a tool to check WCAG 2.1 AA contrast ratios for all text and interactive elements.
