#f0f1f2, often called whisper, is a barely-there grey with a faint cool cast. It earns its keep as a dominant base in minimal UIs, where plain white reads too bright. Black text hits about 18.6:1 contrast on it, so small body copy stays sharp. Next to pure white it can look washed out, so lean on borders or darker neutrals to define edges.
