# Developer Reference Datasets

Open, reproducible lookup tables that web and app developers reach for constantly — **computed from first principles, not scraped, so every value is exact and re-runnable.** CC BY 4.0.
## Quick answers (straight from the data)
- **What is 16:9 in pixels?** 1920×1080, 1280×720, 3840×2160. 9:16 (Stories, Reels, TikTok) is those flipped. → `aspect-ratios`, `resolutions`
- **What contrast ratio does WCAG require?** 4.5:1 for normal text (AA), 3:1 for large, 7:1 for AAA. `#6b7280` on white is 4.83 (passes AA); `#9ca3af` is 2.54 (fails). → `wcag-contrast-pairs`, `wcag-on-white-black`
- **How many bytes is a character?** In UTF-8: Latin 1, accented/Greek/Cyrillic 2, CJK 3, most emoji 4 (a flag emoji is 8 bytes / 2 code points). → `encoding-sizes`
- **What is the MIME type / magic number of a file?** Extension → MIME type + byte signature, **with the offset** (RIFF/ISO-BMFF/tar signatures are not at byte 0, which most lists get wrong). `.docx` is a ZIP (`PK`). → `file-types`
- **How many characters fit in a QR code?** A version-1 QR holds 41 digits / 25 alphanumeric / 17 bytes at ECC level L; up to 7,089 digits at version 40. Computed from ISO/IEC 18004, verified. → `qr-code-capacity`
- **Which browsers support AVIF / WebP / JPEG XL?** AVIF is fully supported since Chrome 85, Firefox 93, Safari 16.4; JPEG XL is fully supported nowhere. → `image-format-support`
- Plus favicon/app-icon sizes per platform and current social-media image sizes (date-stamped).
## Why it's trustworthy
These are exact answers from the spec, not measurements. An aspect ratio, a WCAG contrast ratio, a UTF-8 byte count and a QR capacity are computable — so the CSVs are computed and re-runnable, and checkable against any online tool.
