#DAFF00 Hex Color
An ultra-bright electric lime accent
High-voltage and aggressively saturated, #daff00 functions best as a focused accent rather than a background color. Its electric lime hue demands immediate attention, making it useful for call-to-action buttons or gaming interface highlights. Pair this hex code with dark charcoal or deep violet for maximum readability. Because it creates intense contrast against black text, use it sparingly to avoid overwhelming your design layout.
