What text color works on #edf000?
Black text is the clear choice, with about 17.1:1 contrast against #edf000, well past the 4.5:1 that WCAG AA requires for body copy. White text fails badly here, so avoid it for anything readable.
Where does #edf000 work best in a design?
Use it as an accent within a 60/30/10 split, on buttons, badges, callouts, and sale tags. At full coverage it fatigues the eye fast, though it suits construction and clearance signage where grabbing attention is the point.

Is #edf000 readable on white or black?
#edf000 has a 1.23:1 contrast ratio on white and 17.06:1 on black. WCAG asks for 4.5:1 for body text and 3:1 for large text, so on white it is too faint for text and on black it works for body text. Try other pairs in the contrast checker.
