The color #0D1836, also known as Tangaroa, presents some accessibility challenges, especially when used as a background or text color. Its low luminance value (being a dark color) means it requires careful consideration of contrast ratios to ensure readability for users with visual impairments. According to WCAG guidelines, a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for standard text and 3:1 for large text against its background. When using Tangaroa, it is crucial to pair it with a light or vibrant color to meet these contrast requirements. Failure to do so may render text or important UI elements invisible or difficult to perceive for individuals with low vision or color blindness. Thorough testing with accessibility tools is advised.
