I do not understand why the scratch team just so happened to change their website color to pUrPLe!!! I find it ugly (no offense, scratch team), and there’s no purpose of it. It’s also very distracting and toooo vivid! I also don’t like the color purple in general, honestly.

Hi there!

The purple has been implemented to ensure accessibility - please see this essay for further reasoning behind the change.

The Scratch Team has done lots of research and determined that the purple is the most accessible for some people with disabilities and who suffer from colour blindness - this allows more people to use Scratch!
