Low text contrast and no visual cues for links within body text in admin UI — at Initial Version
Description ¶
The Django admin’s light theme uses a light blue for links within text, with no other distinction of what is a link. This is problematic for two reasons:
- The current shade of blue,
#447e9b
, doesn’t have enough contrast against the white body background. - For people with color blindness, there is no visual cue that a link is a link.
For those reasons, I would recommend:
- Changing the link color of
--link-fg
. My recommendation would be to use an ever-so-slightly darker#437c98
(1% less lightness in HSL representation) - Introduce an underline for all links within body text, so they can be identified unambiguously.
