When used as a background color, it necessitates very light text to ensure sufficient contrast for readability. According to WCAG guidelines, the contrast ratio between the text and background should be at least 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text. Using a tool to measure contrast ratios is highly recommended to confirm compliance. It's crucial to avoid pairing this color with other dark shades, as this would render content illegible for many users, especially those with visual impairments. Careful consideration of color combinations is essential to make web content accessible and inclusive. Always test color schemes with accessibility tools to ensure compliance with accessibility standards, particularly for users with low vision or color blindness. Proper contrast enhances the user experience for everyone.
