The color #2B49AB, also known as Governor Bay, presents some accessibility considerations for web development. With a relatively low luminance, it may not provide sufficient contrast when used as text against a white or very light background. This can make it difficult for users with visual impairments to read the content. According to WCAG guidelines, a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for normal text and 3:1 for large text. When using #2B49AB for text, it's essential to pair it with a sufficiently light background to meet these contrast requirements. Alternatively, if used as a background color, ensure the text color is light enough. Tools like contrast checkers can help determine if the color combination meets accessibility standards, ensuring content is usable for everyone, including those with disabilities. Careful consideration of color pairings is crucial to create an inclusive and accessible web experience.
