This builder also helps automate accessibility features by checking contrast ratios and suggesting strokes when needed, ensuring your custom buttons maintain LittleLink's high standards for visibility in both light and dark themes.

🌞 Themes and Accessibility
LittleLink offers auto
, light
, and dark
themes right out of the box. If the default color schemes don't match your preference, you can easily customize them by updating the values in style.css
. You can set any of the themes right in index.html
. To enhance visual accessibility in both light
and dark
modes, buttons lacking sufficient contrast with the background are outlined with an inverse stroke to ensure visibility. While LittleLink emphasizes accessibility, it's important to acknowledge that not all brands incorporated into LittleLink achieve this standard. Branded buttons that come into LittleLink always retain the original essence of the brand and some branded buttons might fall short of optimal accessibility in terms of contrast.

LittleLink epitomizes simplicity and minimalism. When evaluating the LittleLink sample page (which mirrors a typical LittleLink setup for an individual) through tools such as Google PageSpeed Insights, showcases LittleLink's excellence with 100/100 in Performance, Accessibility, Best Practices, and SEO. My initial vision for LittleLink was to craft it from the fundamentals. LittleLink leverages it's own vanilla css
to remove the unnecessary bloat you would get from using a large framework for a page that requires nothing more than simplicity.
