Overview
To check the color contrast between foreground and background of the texts
It checks the color contrast between the foreground and background of the elements that are in the page according to the WCAG 2.2. It evaluates the contrast on all elements of the page considering their computed style for the color and background-color CSS properties. In case of these colors are defined with RGBA values, it also considers the opacity to deduce the real color that finally is show. It can simulate color blindness and evaluate the contrast for the simulations. By this way, developers can see how the pages look for colorblind users. The tool also includes two fields in which the colors can be introduced manually to be tested. It also allows to pick the color directly from the documents. Finally, it auto-refreshes when DOM of the page changes (addition or removing elements), but if the page has many changes, this behavior can be de-activated.

Stopped to work with local PDFs in last update. Please, consider to fix with a new update. Best regards.

Great extension for easily finding colour contrast accessibility issues - especially with the auto-update feature. Unfortunately the extension overlays on the page and doesn't appear to update the viewport, so there are parts of the page that are hidden from view that are being analysed that I can't see - it would be good if the extension either updated the viewport so that all items on the page are always visible (similar to how DevTools works) or if when you clicked on an item, it would sh...

Hi Joe, thank you very much for your comment and feedback. I am working in an improvement related with the behavior covering elements in the view. Basically, this usually happens with elements that have fixed position in the page, and what it will do is to identify them and adjust their position according to the dimension of the panel. Regarding the option to have it integrated in the browser so the extension does not need to deal with the viewport, I am reviewing if it would be possible to have it in the Chrome sidepanel. In theory I think it will be, but I need to check how to keep compatibility with other browsers (now the same code works in a standard way to all browsers engines). I'll work on it. Regarding the hidden elements, I will also introduce the option to exclude them from the analysis. My concern is that there are many ways to hide visually elements in the pages, and I have to find a reliable way to identify them. Again, thank you very much for your comment.

Amazing extension! But it lacks support for CSS variables.
Jorge RumorosoDeveloperJan 23, 2024
Hi, thank you for your comment. To be honest, I didn't think of it until now and I am not sure what the extension could do with the CSS variables, but for sure it is worth to take a look. I would like to understand a bit more about what is missing, so what did you mean? The extension gets the colors from the style that is rendered, so not sure how the CSS variables relate or impact there.
