That one website that checks if your text and background colors have enough contrast

Why it's the pick

Enter two colors and WebAIM gives the contrast ratio with a pass or fail for WCAG AA and AAA on normal text, large text and interface elements. A lightness slider lets you nudge a color until it passes, and every result has a shareable link.
