Description:
Low-contrast text poses difficulties for a significant number of users, impeding their ability to read content effectively. In an effort to address this accessibility concern, we attempted to set a different brand color to undergo WCAG color tests. However, the current brand color, #69D5B1, fails to meet the required contrast ratio of 4.5:1 (or 3:1 for large text), achieving only a contrast ratio of 1.78:1.
Proposed Solution:
We recommend using a different color, #255645, which boasts a contrast ratio of 8.41:1. This alternative color would substantially enhance the legibility and accessibility of the text, ensuring that it can be easily read by all users.
Steps to Reproduce:
- - Navigate to the webpage containing low-contrast text.
- - Inspect the current brand color, #69D5B1, and its associated contrast ratio.
- - Observe the inadequate contrast ratio of 1.78:1.
Expected Result:
Text should have a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 (or 3:1 for large text) to ensure optimal legibility and accessibility.
