This neon lime is a high-chroma, electric green that practically glows on screen. Because it is so vivid, #b8ef7a works best as a punchy 10% accent rather than a full background. Pair it with deep charcoal or matte black to ground its high energy. With excellent contrast for text, it offers better readability than many similar pink shades often used in modern gaming palettes.
