README.md

pandoc-access-theme

A pandoc syntax highlighting theme that is WCAG AA compliant.

This theme was loosely inspired by Eric Bailey's a11y themes. 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.

Disclaimer

While I have done my best to ensure this theme is WCAG AA compliant, I am not an accessbility or design expert. You should double check this theme yourself and ensure it meets your needs/obligations. By using it, you take full liability for any non-compliance issues in your application.
