General Information about #1907df

#1907df is a dark shade of blue, residing within the blue color family. It carries a sense of depth and intensity, making it suitable for applications where a strong and grounding color is needed. Hexadecimal color codes, like #1907df, are used in HTML, CSS, and other web technologies to specify colors digitally. The hexadecimal system uses a combination of six letters and numbers to represent colors. In the case of #1907df, the first two characters ('19') represent the intensity of red, the next two ('07') represent the intensity of green, and the last two ('df') represent the intensity of blue. The higher the number, the more intense the color. It's often associated with stability, confidence, and authority. However, due to its darkness, it's important to consider accessibility when using this color, especially regarding contrast ratios.

The hex color #1907df, a dark blue, presents significant accessibility challenges, especially in text applications. Its low luminance contrasts poorly with both white and black backgrounds, failing WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines) standards for contrast ratios. Specifically, the contrast ratio against a white background is approximately 1.9:1, far below the recommended 4.5:1 for normal text and 3:1 for large text. This can cause readability issues for users with visual impairments, including those with low vision or color blindness. To improve accessibility, it is advisable to use lighter shades of blue or combine it with high-contrast colors like white or yellow for visual elements. Always test color combinations using accessibility tools to ensure compliance with WCAG guidelines and provide a user-friendly experience.
