Links/Color contrast

[aberkow]

the color that's used for links (#008AFF) doesn't have sufficient color contrast to meet WCAG AA standards (minimum 4.5). it's currently 3.45. the link styles could be improved by

• adding an underline on body links for people with colorblindness. these underlines could be removed on hover/focus
• changing the color to something more along the lines of #036fcc which has a contrast of ~5.0
• the hover/focus color could be something more like #2c769c to improve contrast from ~3 to ~5
