Notes

Spring Green is the brilliant, slightly cyan-leaning green of new shoots in early spring. The CSS hex is one of the most saturated greens in the spec and reads as almost neon. Large fields of Spring Green fatigue the eye quickly and rarely pass body text contrast against white. Against deep navy type it cools enough to read; against magenta it makes a complementary clash. As a UI element it functions for success states and emphasised buttons with dark text overlays. Body text contrast against white fails AA at every size - a surface only.
