Colour

We built-in SASS colour variables to ensure a consistent application of colour across the SWE. Defining custom colours should be minimal and only done when appropriate to meet user and business needs.

By default the colours in the SWE meet level AA of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.0.
