I know about WCAG, too. You can also just implement a function that detects whether or not a color is dark or not. It is a general purpose function, e.g. my "isDark" function is: "func() < 0.5" (func() is omitted, but it is an algorithm). You can have "isLight", too, by doing "> 0.5". There are many ways to do this. You can just simply convert a hex color to RGB, then compute the luminance of the color, and then compare the luminance to a threshold (e.g. 0.5) to classify it as dark or light. The luminance function (WCAG luminance formula) converts RGB values to the range 0-1, applies gamma correction, and calculates luminance using the weighted sum of the gamma-corrected RGB values.
> APCA says you don't need as much contrast
You can always specify the threshold if you want, e.g. "apcaContrast(color)) >= $targetContrast" after adjusting, depending on what you want to do.
It really is easy, just make sure you have enough color space.
