Is #eff2b2 a good choice for web text?
No, #eff2b2 should not be used for body text because it lacks sufficient contrast against white backgrounds. Instead, use this color as a high-visibility background highlight or a soft, airy accent while keeping your primary text in dark, readable shades.
Is #eff2b2 readable on white or black?
#eff2b2 has a 1.16:1 contrast ratio on white and 18.01:1 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.
