Color Best Practices
-
Maintain Contrast Ratios
Ensure text has sufficient contrast with background colors for accessibility (WCAG recommends at least 4.5:1 for normal text).
-
Consistent Color Palette
Use a limited, consistent color palette throughout your website for better brand recognition and user experience.
-
Consider Color Blindness
Avoid relying solely on color to convey information, as approximately 8% of men and 0.5% of women have some form of color blindness.
-
Use HSL for Adjustments
HSL makes it easier to create variations of a color by adjusting lightness or saturation while maintaining the same hue.
