The color #1A1C23, also known as Mirage, presents accessibility challenges due to its dark nature. When used as a background color, it necessitates very light text to ensure sufficient contrast for readability, adhering to WCAG guidelines for color contrast ratios. A contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for standard text and 3:1 for large text. Individuals with visual impairments may struggle to differentiate elements if the contrast is insufficient. Therefore, designers should carefully select foreground colors, such as off-white or light gray, and test the color combination with accessibility tools to verify compliance with accessibility standards. Also avoid using this color for important UI elements such as buttons without making sure the contrast ratio is sufficient.
