General Rules

Color

These are the only colors that should be used for text within our apps. They all pass minimum WCAG AA contrast. 

Starfield, Meteor, and Satellite
starfield and meteor should be used for headings, body, and other informational text. satellite is used for placeholder and disabled type styles ONLY.

Simple Blue, Orion, and Ursa
simple-blue is used on headlines, links, and other key text. orion and ursa are used credit and debit. All 3 of these colors should only be used on white.

Background Usage Examples
 
For non-actionable text, use weight to differentiate instead of color
  • Move towards depending on weight variations versus color for hierarchy
