The hex color #152448, also known as Blue Zodiac, presents some accessibility challenges, particularly regarding color contrast. When used as a background color, it necessitates light text colors to ensure readability. A contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for standard text and 3:1 for large text to comply with WCAG guidelines. Tools like WebAIM's contrast checker can be invaluable in verifying adequate contrast. It is also important to consider users with low vision or color blindness, who may struggle to distinguish elements against this dark background. Providing alternative themes or allowing users to customize colors can significantly improve accessibility. Ensuring proper focus indicators for interactive elements is also crucial, as a poorly defined focus state can render the site unusable for keyboard users. Additionally, avoid using color alone to convey information; always supplement color with text or other visual cues.
