WCAG 2.1
4.55:1
Passes AA for body text
Not AAA (7:1). Swapping the two colours gives the same number — the ratio does not know which is the text.
APCA
Lc -53.9
Clears Lc 45 — large or heavy display text.
Light text on a darker ground — the negative sign is the polarity.
Colour difference
ΔE00 52.3
different colours
Above 10 — related only in the sense that both are colours.
Nothing to fix
This pair already clears 4.5:1, so #54d905 can stay exactly as it is. Check another pair.
And to someone missing a cone
protanopia
Ratio 5.03:1, ΔE00 53.5.
deuteranopia
Ratio 4.29:1, ΔE00 50.5.
tritanopia
Ratio 3.94:1, ΔE00 41.5.
The weakest of the three is tritanopia, where the two are ΔE00 41.5 apart against 52.3 for a trichromat — still clearly two colours.
