The color #2E29AD, also known as Governor Bay, presents some accessibility challenges, particularly regarding color contrast. When used as a background color, it's crucial to ensure that the text placed on top of it has sufficient contrast to be readable for individuals with visual impairments. A contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for normal text and 3:1 for large text, as specified by the WCAG (Web Content Accessibility Guidelines). Lighter colors like whites (#FFFFFF) and light yellows (#FFFF00) are often necessary to meet these standards. Using tools to check color contrast ratios is highly advisable during the design process. Additionally, avoid using color as the sole means of conveying important information. Providing alternative cues, such as text labels or icons, is essential to ensure that content is accessible to everyone, including those with color vision deficiencies. Considering these factors will lead to a more inclusive and user-friendly design.
