WCAG 2.1 Accessibility Considerations

When placing text over CSS gradients, always evaluate contrast against all color stops to ensure compliance with WCAG 2.1 AA (4.5:1 for body text, 3:1 for large text). Use semi-transparent backing surfaces or high-contrast drop shadows when text spans across contrasting color bands.
