Contrast Checker

Check whether your foreground and background color combination meets WCAG 2.1 accessibility guidelines. AA requires a 4.5:1 ratio for normal text (3:1 for large text); AAA requires 7:1. Use this before shipping UI to ensure your text is readable for everyone, including people with low vision.
