Reach for a lime like #b7f12d when a design needs an electric jolt, think energy drink cans, esports logos, or call-to-action buttons. This hex code is highly saturated and light, so it glows against dark backgrounds but washes out next to white. Best used as a 10% accent with charcoal or deep navy, never as a full background. Black text stays readable on it at about 15.6:1 contrast, which clears WCAG AA with room to spare.
