Accessibility notes

  • The lighter colors like `#FFECB3` and `#D1C4E9` require dark text (e.g., black or dark gray) for sufficient contrast.
  • Ensure `#FF4081` and `#F06292` have enough contrast when used together for text and background, as they are close in hue.
  • Avoid placing light blue (`#80D8FF`) text on a light lavender (`#D1C4E9`) background, or vice-versa, due to low contrast.
  • Always verify text readability, especially for smaller font sizes, as pastels can sometimes blend into each other.
