Contrast
Can people read it?
Each cell is the row colour as text on the column colour, with its WCAG 2.2 contrast ratio. Ratios are cut, never rounded up: 4.49 is not 4.5.
AAA 7:1 or more: any text
AA 4.5:1: body text
AA large 3:1: large text (24px, or 14pt bold, about 18.7px) and buttons, icons, borders
Fails under 3:1: decoration only

| #0077AB | same colour | 1.05:1Fails |

Contrast is one part of accessibility, not all of it. RiotPad checks colour pairs against WCAG 2.2; it does not certify a website as accessible. Ratios use the WCAG 2.2 relative-luminance formula (Success Criteria 1.4.3, 1.4.6 and 1.4.11).
