Accessibility notes

  • Ensure #3A6E8C text has strong contrast on #E0FFFF and #B8DEED backgrounds to meet WCAG guidelines.
  • Avoid using #B8DEED for small text or critical information, as its lightness may reduce readability for some users.
  • Test interactive elements thoroughly to ensure hover and active states are clearly distinguishable.
  • Consider using a darker shade of blue or black for very small text or legal disclaimers if relying heavily on light background colors.
