Bright Mint
Vibrant neon green that demands attention
Bright Mint is a high-energy, neon green that demands attention. Because it is so light and saturated, use #98ff98 as a small accent for UI elements like buttons rather than a full background. It pairs well with deep charcoal grays to ground its intense glow. Black text offers excellent readability against this shade, making it a functional choice for modern interface design.
