Its chroma gives it a polished, refreshing presence rather than a muted, earthy feel.
Does #24bf9d work with black text?
Yes, black text on #24bf9d reaches about a 9.0:1 contrast ratio, comfortably exceeding the WCAG AA 4.5:1 requirement for normal body text and making this pairing suitable for readable interface copy. Use black for labels, paragraphs, and controls, then verify the final type size and weight in context.
Is #24bf9d readable on white or black?
#24bf9d has a 2.32:1 contrast ratio on white and 9.01:1 on black. WCAG asks for 4.5:1 for body text and 3:1 for large text, so on white it is too faint for text and on black it works for body text. Try other pairs in the contrast checker.
