Suggested Changes
I ran the axe browser dev tools on https://typescript-eslint.io/getting-started. The report indicated inline links such as the ESLint and TypeScript ones under Step 1: Installation aren't visually distinct enough from surrounding text to always be perceived as different. The color contrast of their current color in light mode (#889dfa
) compared to surrounding text (#e3e3e3
) is only color contrast 1.98:1 - lower than the AA minimum of 3:1.
Getting links distinguishable from other body text is hard by color alone. Especially when they have to also have sufficient color contrast against the background of the page. It's generally easiest to add a non-color indicator such as a text underline the way GitHub did recently (https://github.blog/changelog/2023-10-18-new-default-underlined-links-for-improved-accessibility).
