❤️ Hey Product Hunt! Designers, developers, and accessibility champions—this one's for you!
With the European Accessibility Act coming into effect in June 2025, ensuring your designs meet accessibility standards has never been more crucial. That's why I’m super excited to introduce Contrasts, a macOS app that makes checking and improving color contrast effortless.
With a one-click experience and seamless macOS integration, it helps you create accessible, WCAG-compliant designs without disrupting your workflow.
🎨 What does Contrasts do?
Contrasts allows you to easily input colors using color codes or pickers, providing clear pass/fail results based on WCAG standards. It removes the complexity of color contrast checking, letting you focus on what you do best—designing!
🔥 What makes Contrasts unique?
✅ Code to color – No need to translate colors to HEX; our smart text field accepts almost any color representation.
✅ Preview mode – Color your whole UI with your selection to easily find high-contrast color pairs.
✅ Shortcuts – Open Contrasts anytime as a popover window, just like Spotlight.
✅ WCAG conformance – Contrast ratings based on WCAG 2.1 success criteria for accessibility.
✅ Color spaces – Support for various color spaces displayed alongside colors to avoid confusion.
✅ Export & share – Easily export your colors and results in various formats with just one click.
👀 Why does this matter?
Poor contrast = bad UX. It affects readability, usability, and inclusion. Whether you’re designing apps, websites, or branding, making colors accessible shouldn’t be an afterthought.
