Re: Documentation colour theme
The text I quoted said _consider_. Not _do not use black_. The author considered it and decided to use both black and dark gray text (see the text in the margin and the footer?).
Re: Documentation colour theme
@flyx, and this page from practicaltypography uses black on white :)
Re: Documentation colour theme
@flyx The page you referenced uses full black text on full white background. So, what is so wrong with black, again ? [Example](https://postimg.org/image/t3p2zslk3/)
Re: Documentation colour theme
Another opinion on text color from [here](http://forum.nim-lang.org///practicaltypography.com/color.html): > But consider making body text on screen dark gray rather than black. > Screens have more severe contrast than paper, and thus are more tiring to > read at full contrast. This is because screens produce color by emitting > light directly, whereas paper produces color by absorbing and > reflecting ambient light. I would also prefer text color to be a bit darker. But black is overkill.
Documentation colour theme
Glad that the project has advanced so much the last time I used it. Now to get grasp on it I went to read the docs. Please, do not take offense as i find Nim to be the best documented open source project out there, but change the text color to black, because light gray is eye-soar to read on white. It's especially bad on consumer laptops nowadays with trashy lcd displays (devices cheaper than 2k USD prevailing in my region). BTW, absolutely happy that I could regenerate it via koch by adjusting config/nimdoc.cfg body css! p.s. [http://contrastrebellion.com](http://forum.nim-lang.org///contrastrebellion.com)/ ;)
