The color #101A20, also known as Aztec, presents significant accessibility challenges, particularly concerning color contrast. When used as a foreground color for text or interactive elements, it requires careful consideration of the background color. Due to its dark nature, it necessitates a very light background to meet WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) standards for contrast ratios. A contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for standard text and 3:1 for large text. Ensure sufficient contrast to accommodate users with visual impairments. Using tools to verify color contrast ratios is essential during the design and development process. It is advisable to avoid pairing #101A20 with other dark colors, as this will result in poor readability and a diminished user experience. Considering alternative, lighter colors or providing a high-contrast theme option is crucial for ensuring inclusivity and usability.
