Accessibility notes

  • All colors are very light; ensure text has sufficient contrast by using dark text (e.g., black, dark gray, or deep purple).
  • Avoid using light text on any of these pastel backgrounds to prevent readability issues, especially for small fonts.
  • When using #F0F8FF or #FFF0F5 as backgrounds, ensure any overlaid text or icons are significantly darker.
  • Consider using a slightly bolder font weight for body text to improve readability against these soft backgrounds.
