📚 Documentation: Buttons do not have sufficient contrast using Appwrite Pink [a11y][TheA11y100] #293

Description

Issue

The Appwrite pink with white text does not have sufficient contrast (currently #FC356E to #ffffff is a contrast ratio of 3.6:1).

Why it matters

There are millions of people who have poor contrast perception, so it helps make text legible and the site easier to use.

Suggested fix

Check with Appwrite design team, but one possible fix (if unable to use a darker background colour) would be to change the button text to be 19px and bold. This would then pass as "large text" under WCAG AA.

Another option would be black text on the Appwrite Pink (doesn't look great!).

Relevant Success Criterion WCAG

Contrast (Minimum)
