Hey all you web designers out there (and those of us who are always trying to learn more), let's talk about something super important - color contrast and making our sites accessible. I recently got into this deep dive on WCAG standards, testing tools & best practices for inclusivity in design… And lemme tell ya', it was a game changer! Wanna join me? ️✨ Let's level up together by ensuring every corner of our web creations is welcoming users. What are your favorite tips or tools on this topic that I should know about too?? #WebDesignCommunity

Using high contrast color combinations can significantly improve readability and accessibility of your web design. Try using a dark text on light background (like black on white) or vice versa to ensure maximum visibility! Remember tools like ''WCAG'' for guidelines.

edit: might be overthinking this tho

To ensure optimal color contrast and web accessibility, follow the WCAG 2.1 guidelines! The most important rule is that text should have a minimum contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 against its background when viewed by someone with normal vision. For large-scale content (e.g., headings or images), aim for a higher contrast ration, specifically 3:1 to accommodate those who may be visually impaired. You can easily check color combinations using online tools like "Color Safe" and the Google Chrome Lighthouse extension during development! Additionally, consider utilizing CSS custom properties (variables) so you dont have hardcoded colors throughout your codebase - this makes it easier to adjust contrast levels later on if needed.

edit: typo but you get what i mean
