Not a pastel and not a deep forest green, this luminous lime sits light and bright at the yellow end of the spectrum. The hex code #c8fb8f carries a neon charge, so treat it as a 10% accent for sports branding, energy drinks, or gaming UIs rather than a full background. A full spread washes out next to white and drowns fine detail. Black text on it hits 17.7:1, well past WCAG AA.
