Color Accessibility

Color contrast affects how easily people can read your content, including users with low vision or color blindness. When using colored text over a colored background (body copy, headlines, buttons, links, etc.), always check that the combination meets WCAG 2.1 AA contrast standards:

  • 4.5:1 minimum for normal text
  • 3:1 minimum for large text (18pt+ or 14pt+ bold)

Test any color pairing before using it with the WebAIM Contrast Checker.
