  • All colors are light; ensure text has strong contrast with a very dark color for readability.
  • Avoid using #F7F7FF or #E0E5FF for text, as they lack sufficient contrast against most backgrounds.
  • When designing, check contrast ratios carefully, especially for smaller text on any of the lighter blues.
  • Consider using a dark neutral like #333333 for all body text to ensure WCAG AA compliance.
