The color #104710, a dark fern green, presents specific accessibility considerations for web development. Due to its low luminance, it's crucial to ensure sufficient contrast when used as text or a background. According to WCAG guidelines, a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is required for normal text and 3:1 for large text against its background to meet AA standards. Using this color for text on a white background may not meet these requirements. A lighter color should be chosen as a text color on a dark fern background and vice versa. Also, avoid using this color as the sole indicator for interactive elements like links or buttons, as users with color vision deficiencies may not be able to distinguish them. Always provide additional cues, such as underlines or borders, to ensure usability for all users. Careful consideration of color combinations is essential to create an inclusive and accessible web experience.
