| Summary | 0005739: Background colour should not use hard white/black | ||||
| Description | The background colour of Composr defaults to main_background which is either #ffffff or #000000 depending on light or dark theme. Generally, this should be avoided. With light themes, a hard white means a lot of blue light is being used which is harsh / harmful to the eyes. With dark mode, pure black is too dark and conceptually blurs the line between literal nothing and page content (e.g. a slightly brighter black would conceptually tell the brain you are looking at a page in dark mode, not looking at literal nothing). | ||||

Using 80/20 seems to work well for dark mode, but not for light mode. Going with 80% black 20% seed for dark... and 95% white 5% seed for light. Reading up online, many people do not recommend using pure white or black due to eye strain. Composr does not use pure black text but we are using pure white/black backgrounds. So I'm remedying that. A change is being applied. I still need to review other styles to see what needs adjusted accordingly. |
