FAQPage Schema
How do I create a color palette that meets WCAG contrast requirements?

Create a WCAG-compliant color palette by mapping project themes to meaningful hues, then verifying WCAG 2.1 AA contrast ratios against white text and adjusting colors as needed. This process ensures primary and accent colors remain accessible for branding.

What is WCAG 2.1 AA contrast validation for branding colors?

WCAG 2.1 AA contrast validation checks if text remains readable against primary backgrounds. It measures luminance ratios to ensure accessibility, adjusting hues that fail compliance to guarantee your branding palette is legible for all users.

How do I update docs/branding.md with an accessible color scheme?

Update docs/branding.md by proposing a concise entry containing the validated primary and accent color set, along with accessibility rationale and contrast notes. This documents the WCAG-compliant palette directly within your project guidelines.

Can I generate primary and accent colors from a basic theme brief?

Yes, you can generate primary and accent colors from a basic theme brief. The process evaluates your branding context, maps the theme to appropriate hues, and builds a complete color set while validating accessibility compliance.

What happens if my chosen branding colors fail WCAG contrast checks?

When branding colors fail WCAG contrast checks, the palette is adjusted as needed to meet compliance. The system modifies the non-compliant hues while preserving your project theme, ensuring text visibility on primary backgrounds.
