proposing a colour swap for hyperlinked text for more contrast #305

Closed serahkiburu closed 4 years ago

serahkiburu commented 4 years ago

Because links are not underlined, I would like to propose a change in hyperlink colours so we can have more contrast with surrounding text. WebAIM suggests, that "For usability and accessibility, links should be underlined by default. Otherwise, link text must have at least 3:1 contrast with surrounding body text, and must present a non-color indicator (typically underline) on mouse hover and keyboard focus."

Here's a helpful tool to check for contrast ratios: https://webaim.org/resources/linkcontrastchecker/
