```kotlin
val LocalContentColor = compositionLocalOf { Color.Black }
```


CompositionLocal containing the preferred content color for a given position in the hierarchy.
This typically represents the `on` color for a color in `Colors`. For example, if the background
color is `Colors.surface`, this color is typically set to `Colors.onSurface`.

This color should be used for any typography / iconography, to ensure that the color of these
adjusts when the background color changes. For example, on a dark background, text should be
light, and on a light background, text should be dark.

Defaults to `Color.Black` if no color has been explicitly set.
