The color #2C23C3, a shade of Persian Blue, presents some accessibility challenges. Its relatively low luminance (brightness) can make it difficult to read when used as text on a white or light-colored background. According to WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines), sufficient contrast between text and background is crucial for readability, especially for users with visual impairments. A contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for normal text, and 3:1 for large text. When using #2C23C3 for text, it's essential to ensure that the background color provides adequate contrast. Using a lighter shade of blue or a completely different, brighter color would improve accessibility. Tools like contrast checkers can help evaluate the contrast ratio. Also, avoid using this color for essential UI elements without proper contrast, as it might make the application difficult to use.
