I am adding this to my digital toolkit when testing web-based materials for color contrast! I have used other checkers that offer a similar service, but this one allows you to scroll through the entire page instead of simply showing a screenshot of the top of the page. It is an easy-to-use tool for testing online materials for color contrast. Instead of testing on section, such as the text:background color ratio, this allows the user to see an entire page through the eyes of someone with four different types of color blindness. It is a great learning material for anyone who is unfamiliar with the impact of colorblindness when navigating the web, and beneficial tool for anyone looking to test what they've published for accessibility.
