Its dark hue means that sufficient contrast with foreground text is crucial for readability, especially for users with visual impairments. According to WCAG guidelines, a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1 is recommended for normal text and 3:1 for large text. Using a light color for text on a #2e316d background, such as white or a very pale yellow, can help meet these standards. Tools are readily available to check color contrast ratios. Additionally, avoid using color as the sole means of conveying information; supplement color cues with text or icons. For interactive elements, ensure that hover and focus states provide adequate visual distinction to aid keyboard navigation.
