Quick Tip: Color Reliance
Relying on color to convey information can create accessibility barriers for users with color vision deficiencies. To make your design more inclusive, supplement color cues with text labels, icons, patterns, or shapes. For example, instead of using red and green to indicate errors and successes, pair them with clear labels like “Error” or a checkmark icon. This ensures all users can understand and navigate your content, regardless of how they perceive color.
