Draft: feat(Text): Update default text token color for darkmode
What does this MR do?
Refines the text.color.default
design token for darkmode to use color.neutral.100
, subtly dimming it to improve the visual hierarchy and readability across the UI. This slight adjustment allows strong
and heading
tokens to stand out more effectively, enhancing their prominence and enabling clearer differentiation of key text. This improvement contributes to an overall better reading experience by providing a more balanced contrast.

Accessibility
If this MR adds or modifies a component, take a few moments to review the following:
-
All actions and functionality can be done with a keyboard. -
Links, buttons, and controls have a visible focus state. -
All content is presented in text or with a text equivalent. For example, alt text for SVG, or aria-label
for icons that have meaning or perform actions. -
Changes in a component’s state are announced by a screen reader. For example, changing aria-expanded="false"
toaria-expanded="true"
when an accordion is expanded. -
Color combinations have sufficient contrast.
