WCAG 2.1 Accessibility Contrast Audit

Contrast calculations of Mint against pure white and iOS OLED dark surfaces.

Light Mode (#00C8B3)on White (#FFF)
Contrast Ratio:2.12:1
Normal Text (4.5:1 AA): Fail
Dark Mode (#00DAC3)on Dark (#1C1C1E)
Contrast Ratio:9.57:1
Normal Text (4.5:1 AA): Pass (AA)

Recommended HIG Use Cases

  • Modern category pills and labels
  • Finance and productivity app accents
  • Multi-series charts and visualizations

Anti-Patterns to Avoid

  • Thin body text on pure white
  • Sole signifier for universal accessibility cues

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I use Color.mint in SwiftUI?

In SwiftUI, apply the color directly using view modifiers like .foregroundStyle(.mint), .tint(.mint), or .background(.mint). You can also instantiate it via Color.mint.

What is the HEX code for SwiftUI Mint in light and dark mode?

In light appearance, SwiftUI Mint resolves to #00C8B3. In dark appearance, it automatically adapts to #00DAC3.

What is the UIKit and AppKit equivalent of SwiftUI Color.mint?

The UIKit equivalent is UIColor.systemMint (accessible in SwiftUI via Color(uiColor: .systemMint)). The AppKit equivalent is NSColor.systemMint (accessible via Color(nsColor: .systemMint)).

Does SwiftUI Color.mint adapt automatically to dark mode?

Yes, Color.mint is a dynamic Apple system token that automatically updates between light (#00C8B3) and dark (#00DAC3) appearances when the system appearance changes.

What is the Display P3 and sRGB value of Color.mint?

Color.mint uses resolved sRGB values (#00C8B3 in light, #00DAC3 in dark) and supports wide color gamut Display P3 coordinates for high-fidelity rendering on Apple Retina displays.
