Color contrast is also important. Like actually putting a readable header on the page. ('^_^)

- alias_neo 1y agoThis gives me a silly idea for an "accessibility" mode, where absolutely everything on the page is invisible to sighted people, but clearly, and perfectly readable to screen readers etc. I did some professional services work years ago, very early in my career for a public-sector client that wanted accessibility features given absolute care and attention. It really gave me some perspective and I've tried to be conscious of it ever since; though I'm purely back-end nowadays so it doesn't apply as much.
- Y_Y 1y agoMaybe you could use STT so that the only written text visible is that which was able to pass through the screen reader.
- tracker1 1y agoWent through similar in the eLearning space as well as on some govt adjacent work. A surprising amount is just common sense when using a well flushed out component library. What's fun is making an app that explicitly requires well sightedness (scanned documents), and meeting accessibility requirements for literally everything in the app beyond that. Aside: I wouldn't mind seeing a library where you can give a text weight and text color, with the background color you want to use, but it returns the closest background color that will meet accessibility/contrast requirements.
- webspinner 1y agoThat could be a privacy thing. Just make the site text friendly.
- albanbrooke 1y agoYikes, I think I just fixed it. I'd never looked at my site in dark mode before.
