Changed the color in the challenge.less file. Making a PR now :)
.refresh-icon { color: darkgreen; }

Hi all! @tommygebru

I agree, the current version of the icon has a too light grey. However, I think changing it to green isn't great UX.
I'm used to all green tests meaning that I passed the tests.
What do you think about changing it to a darker blue or grey? #1d6280 is a dark shade of the current blue that gets a AAA from the WCAG guidelines. #575757 is the lightest shade of grey that would pass. I think a shade of grey looks better than a dark blue in this case.

@Ethan-Arrowood Are you up for changing this again?

Yes I'll make it happen today 😄

How does this look?

@Ethan-Arrowood Can you try a shade of grey as well? I think it would look better, as it's more similar to the text. We don't want this icon to stand out too much.
