Hello!

It was suggested that I share this new color contrast grid tool with this
mailing list: https://contrastgrid.com

It allows you to quickly evaluate the contrast ratios of very large color
systems. Note that it's free open source (
https://github.com/mherchel/contrast-grid), and improves significantly upon
similar tools (see the github link above for details).

Feel free to suggest features/changes to make it more useful. I'd also love
for this to be incorporated by any other sites (including webaim) if it
would be deemed useful.

Thanks,

-Mike Herchel

Good Afternoon,

I don't know if this is the best method or not, but I have a question regarding hamburger menu and ADA. Please if anyone can direct me to the right area to post the question.

Posting on the WebAIM forum is a good place to ask questions but don't
reply to this posting (like I'm doing now) to start your question because
the subject line will be incorrect. This thread is regarding a color
contrast tool. You'll want to start a brand new message. Just send an
email directly to = EMAIL ADDRESS REMOVED = with an appropriate subject
line.

You can also search the archives in case it's a question that was already
asked (and answered) at https://webaim.org/discussion/archives
