The hex color #01151A, also known as Swamp, presents significant accessibility challenges. Its very low luminance value results in extremely poor contrast against white text, making it nearly unreadable. According to WCAG guidelines, the contrast ratio falls far below the minimum requirement of 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text. Therefore, using #01151A for text or important interactive elements is strongly discouraged. To improve accessibility, consider using much lighter colors for text on a #01151A background, or conversely, using #01151A for text on a very light background. Tools like contrast checkers can help assess and adjust color combinations to meet accessibility standards. Avoid using it for critical visual information like charts or graphs without high contrasting elements.
