jules 0c31a343e2 lib-theme-lantern: initial import (access-first set, 2026-07) 
One of three candidates for the access-first / maximum-legibility theme
family (WCAG AAA as identity): 7:1+ contrast on every pair (passes
validate-theme.mjs --aaa), 1.125rem body floor with nothing under 14px,
44px controls for everyone, 3px focus rings, links underlined at rest,
reduced-motion built in. Built for IGH/NDIS-facing surfaces first.

Raw Blame History

/*
* Lantern — warm paper, kitchen table not clinic.
*
* An access-first theme: WCAG AAA as identity, not compliance. Lantern is the
* proof that AAA can feel warm and human. The surface is warm ivory paper —
* high lightness on purpose, so 7:1 ink is easy and nothing has to shout.
* Ink is a near-black warm umber (~15:1 on paper). The single accent is a deep
* amber-brown gold — a lantern's brass, not a yellow hazard — carrying a
* warm-white label well above 7:1. Links share the same deep gold and are
* underlined by default. Built for people who deserve dignity, clarity, and
* zero squinting: NDIS participants, their families, older support
* coordinators. The discipline IS the personality.
*
* Dark mode is the lantern lit: warm dark umber, warm-white ink, and the gold
* turned luminous with a black-umber label on top (bright-swatch/dark-ink, the
* high-contrast direction).
*
* Family DNA (shared across the access candidates):
* - Type ramp starts larger (body 1.125rem/1.65); captions never below 14px.
* - Body ink AND muted-foreground >= 7:1 on background AND card, both modes.
* - Primary label >= 7:1 on primary; status labels >= 7:1 where feasible.
* - Focus: 3px solid outline + 2px offset; inputs get border change + ring.
* - Links underlined by default; underline thickens on hover.
* - Touch targets: 2.75rem min-height on buttons/inputs GLOBALLY.
* - Borders strong (ink at ~0.25-0.3 alpha) — boundaries, not decoration.
* - Motion minimal and quick; springs alias standard; reduced-motion honored.
*
* Computed contrast (exact WCAG 2.1 relative-luminance math, oklch -> sRGB;
* sketched first with Y ~ L^3, then verified with the validator's converter):
* LIGHT
* foreground L0.16 on background L0.97 ..... 17.81:1
* foreground L0.16 on card L0.995 .......... 19.14:1
* muted-foreground L0.36 on background ..... 9.99:1
