| Colour Contrast Analyzer (External Site) |
The Colour Contrast Analyzer (CCA) tool provides two useful functions for testing color contrast for accessibility:
- A pass/fail assessment against WCAG 2.1 color contrast success criteria
- A simulation of certain visual conditions, including dichromatic color-blindness and cataracts, to demonstrate how your web content appears to people with less than 20/20 vision
The CCA is available for Windows and Mac, and in multiple languages including English, French, Dutch, Italian, German, Hindi, Korean and traditional Chinese.
Note: The visual simulation functionality is only available in the Windows version.
