How can you use color and contrast to make forms more accessible?
Contrast definitely matters. At work this has been an area I have been deep diving into lately as we are focused on accessibility. High contrast between text and its background is a great way to make sure your items are accessible. Text should stand out distinctly. The Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) recommend a contrast ratio of at least 4.5:1. Some examples of that, Black on White or vice versa: Black: #000000 White: #FFFFFF Blue on Yellow: Blue: #0000FF Yellow: #FFFF00 Hope this helps!
