Warning: My client's app failed accessibility audit because of pastel pink on white
Was working on a health app for a clinic in Denver last month. I thought the light pink on white looked nice and soft. The accessibility checker flagged it at a 2.8:1 contrast ratio which is way below the 4.5:1 minimum for normal text. Had to go back and redo all the button colors from scratch. Has anyone else had a client fight you on making their brand colors darker for accessibility?

Oh man, @james_butler I gotta push back on this one. Sometimes soft colors work fine if the text is big enough or you use it for decoration instead of critical info.
