Changing code text colors

I asked a coding question and it provided me with a snippet of code. I asked if it could change the color of the comments to green and it was not able to do so. I understand its not a big deal since i could do that myself. But i can see how this might be a problem for certain people that might have some level of color blindness. Just wanted to give some feedback on this if it has gone unnoticed.

Thank you for pointing that out.

What you can do until they do that and you are using chrome is this:

  1. press F12 to open developer tools
  2. Select the 3 dots on top right → More tools → Rendering

Which will open the Rendering tab where you can scroll down to “Emulate vision deficiencies”

If you believe that is an easy task to solve. How would you do that?

Create a theme selection above the code view maybe (but even if, I am pretty sure it sounds way easier as it actually is - how many HTML outputs with code highlight boxes have you built)?
