Color contrast tools to check against APCA
EL introduced me to contrast.tools recently, it uses the Advanced Perception of Color Algorithm (APCA) to check the accessibility of your text based on the desired colors and the font weight + size. But importantly, it also provides a lookup table to verify how you should (possibly, probably) interpret things.
I think that APCA is being floated as the new contrast…

Working on it! This is a case of early development code names becoming public and gaining unexpected traction. Still in beta, I expect naming will be simplified upon release.
