# pandoc-access-theme
A pandoc syntax highlighting theme that is WCAG AA compliant.
This theme was loosely inspired by [Eric Bailey's a11y themes](https://github.com/ericwbailey/a11y-syntax-highlighting). As noted there, WCAG AAA standards somewhat preclude useful syntax highlighting for light themes. This theme is WCAG AA compliant; most colors meet the WCAG AAA standards for large text but only AA standards for small text.
# Usage
Simply download the `access-light.theme` file and place it in your working directory, or another location of your choice. Then run (e.g.) `pandoc -t input-file.txt -o output-file.html --highlight-style access-light.theme`.
