Accessibility notes

  • Ensure sufficient contrast when using lighter shades like #F2D2D2 or #E8A1A1 as backgrounds with text.
  • Prioritize #A64E4E, #C77878, or #8C2F2F for text on light backgrounds to meet WCAG contrast guidelines.
  • Avoid using #F2D2D2 for small text sizes, as it lacks sufficient contrast against white.
  • Test color combinations for readability, especially for users with color vision deficiencies, as reds can be tricky.
