Color scheme of JuliaHub package descriptions

I love the automatic linking of xxx.jl to the JuliaHub package page! but what about adjusting the color scheme to something with more contrast? Here’s an example. Am I alone in finding the current scheme hard to read?

I think the contrast could be greater (but I have old eyes).:grinning:

Nice website! it seems to agree:

SERIOUS · WCAG 2.0 AA · Elements must meet minimum color contrast ratio thresholds

Ensures the contrast between foreground and background colors meets WCAG 2 AA minimum contrast ratio thresholds. Applicable success criteria: 1.4.3

Yes, not a surprise :slight_smile: The juliahub designer’s probably under 35 :slight_smile:

I’m under 35 and also think the contrast is a bit low :smile:

Thanks @tecosaur that makes me feel a little less old.

Thanks for raising this issue @sijo :100:

I actually miss that the amount of GitHub stars is not shown.
For me this serves as a quick indicator how mature/used packages are.

Thanks for raising this. I’ve converted it into an issue that we-at-JuliaHub can track more directly — and indeed, JuliaHub-Feedback is a good place to report things like this!

Just chiming in to say that I like the temperature and palette of JuliaHub quite a bit. Accessibility is paramount, but I hope this can be achieved with a few tweaks rather than a radical redesign.
