(IN DEVELOPMENT) A simple Firefox sidebar extension designed to help users check the contrast ratio between two colors. It helps ensure that web content is accessible for users with visual impairments by providing an intuitive tool for comparing foreground and background colors.
- Manual Mode: Select foreground and background colors using color pickers, and check the contrast ratio.
- Auto Mode (Upcoming): Automatically fetches and analyzes the foreground and background colors of the current webpage to check color contrast.
To install the Color Contrast Helper extension in Firefox:
- Download the extension files to your local computer.
- Open Firefox and go to
about:debugging
. ( about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox ) - Click on "This Firefox" (or "Load Temporary Add-on" depending on your version).
- Click on the "Load Temporary Add-on" button.
- Select the
manifest.json
file from your extension folder.
The extension should now be installed and active in your browser.
