crepererum opened a new issue, #172:
URL: https://github.com/apache/parquet-site/issues/172

   # What
   On the landing page (https://parquet.apache.org/) increase the text contrast 
for:
   
   - the navigation bar
   - the summary about what Parquet is in the middle
   
   The affected areas are marked on this screenshot:
   
   <img width="2430" height="1314" alt="Image"

 />
   
   # Why
   Now I could make a subjective argument and say "look at it, it feels hard to 
read" and if you agree with that you can skip the remaining _Why_ section.
   
   But there's also a strictly technical argument here: Accessibility/A11y as 
defined by the W3C, specifically [WCAG 2.2 - Technique 
G18](https://www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG22/Techniques/general/G18). WCAG is the 
underlying technical specification for many laws around the world 
([reference](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_Content_Accessibility_Guidelines#WCAG_referenced_by_law)),
 which I think is a solid reason why we should at least try to adhere to it.
   
   # How
   There are multiple ways of fixing this. I personally think that one will 
always have a hard time when trying to get a readable text overlaying a 
picture. Hence I suggest that the two sections mentioned above shall get a 
solid-colored background. That also makes the constrast calculation way easier 
if one wants to check if the contrast is "good enough".
