Great, with one nitpick: "Black text on a white background can be harsh on the eyes. Opting for a softer shade of black for body text"

Why are people so afraid of black text on white background?! In the end, after all the colors and custom fonts the website has gray text with poor readability which instantly fails WCAG AAA. Had he kept #555 (which is still not ideal), the author would have had a WCAG AAA-compliant design with minimal effort.



Yup. My eyes started getting tired exactly at the point when the text became gray.
