Accessibility notes

  • Ensure #808080 text on #F5F5DC or #F0F8FF backgrounds meets WCAG AA contrast standards.
  • Avoid using #DCDCDC or #C0C0C0 for small text due to their low contrast against light backgrounds.
  • For interactive elements, ensure distinct visual feedback (e.g., hover states) beyond just color changes.
  • If a stronger text contrast is needed for critical information, consider a slightly darker charcoal than #808080.
