Understanding Contrast Ratios
4.5:1 (Level AA)
The minimum required contrast ratio for normal text to be considered accessible under WCAG 2.1 Level AA. For large text, the requirement is lower at 3.0:1. This is the standard target for most web content.
7.0:1 (Level AAA)
The "gold standard" for accessibility. Achieving a 7.0:1 ratio ensures that your text is readable even for people with significant vision loss. For large text, the AAA requirement is 4.5:1.
What counts as Large Text?
WCAG defines large text as anything 18pt (approx. 24px) or larger, or 14pt (approx. 18.66px) and bold or larger. Most headings fall into this category.
Why it matters
Proper contrast is essential for everyone, but especially for people with color blindness, low vision, or those viewing screens in bright sunlight.
