  • Ensure sufficient contrast between text and background colors; for example, #2B5E3C text on #AAD49E background meets WCAG AA standards.
  • Avoid using #AAD49E for small text on very light backgrounds as contrast may be insufficient for readability for some users.
  • When using #7BBA82 or #5A9E66 as a background, pair with #2B5E3C or a near-black for optimal text contrast.
