We read the research on how light, color and contrast tire your eyes, then tuned every Coders Cookies palette around it. The human eye focuses mid spectrum light (around 555 nm green) with the least effort, so we lean on soft greens and warm tones, keep contrast gentle, and cut the high energy blue light.
Every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. Endorsed by the AAO & AOA to relax the eye and restore your blink rate.
Keep the screen about an arm's length away, top of the display at or just below eye level so you look slightly down.
Your screen shouldn't be a torch in a dark room. Match brightness to the ambient light and warm the white point at night.
Pure black + pure white causes a halation glow that strains the eye. We use soft dark grays and off-white text instead.
Desaturated greens and warm ambers carry less high energy blue light and sit where the eye focuses most comfortably. They are the backbone of every variant.
Based on published eye strain and accessibility guidance (AOA, WCAG contrast). See the full research for sources.
