Contrast

ColorAide provides WCAG 2.1 color contrast by default, but there are some criticisms related to how well the WCAG 2.1 algorithm performs. This is not a failing of ColorAide, but the contrast algorithm in general.

ColorAide Extras currently provides a few color contrast methods for evaluating other approaches.
