Accessibility notes

Avoid using light yellows like #F0E68C or #FFFACD for text on light backgrounds due to poor contrast.
Use #B8860B or #DAA520 only for larger text or headings on very light backgrounds to meet AA contrast.
Ensure all body text is in a sufficiently dark color (e.g., black or dark brown) on #FFFACD for readability.
Provide clear visual indicators beyond color alone for interactive elements, especially with similar light tones.
