#2EC00D

sRGB: 46 / 192 / 13

#2EC00D belongs to the green family. Its hex code tells a screen to mix 46 red, 192 green and 13 blue on a scale of 0 to 255. On the HSL wheel, hue is a position around a circle: 108.9° lands in the green region. Its 87.3% saturation makes it strong in color at this lightness. HSL lightness is 40.2% on a scale from black (0%) to white (100%). Of black and white lettering, black has the clearer light-to-dark separation on this background (8.66:1), which helps the shapes of letters stand out.

Text contrast

Contrast tells you how clearly lettering separates from #2EC00D in light and dark. The ratio compares relative luminance, a measure of light weighted for human vision. Identical colors give 1:1 and black against white gives 21:1. A ratio of 2.99:1 falls just below the 3:1 AA minimum for large text. Body text needs at least 4.5:1 because its finer strokes are harder to distinguish.

Black text: 8.66:1

Normal text: AAA
Large text: AAA

White text: 2.42:1

Normal text: Fail
Large text: Fail

AA and AAA are WCAG accessibility levels. AAA sets a higher bar: 7:1 for normal text and 4.5:1 for large text. Large text begins at 18 pt regular or 14 pt bold. Ratings use the unrounded ratio.

Palettes & scales

Harmonies rotate the hue. Scales mix the starting color with white, black or middle gray in 20% steps in encoded sRGB.

Complementary

#9F0DC0 sits half a turn (180°) from #2EC00D on the HSL wheel. Keeping saturation and lightness steady while crossing to the opposite hue gives you a contrasting accent. Check text contrast separately before using the pair for lettering.

#2EC00D #9F0DC0

Analogous

#88C00D and #0DC045 sit 30° to either side of #2EC00D. The three hues are neighbors on the wheel, so you can change the color of a border or highlight while keeping it close to the original.

#88C00D #2EC00D #0DC045

Triadic

#2EC00D, #0D2EC0 and #C00D2E are spaced 120° apart, forming a triangle on the wheel. Try one for the main color and the other two for accents.

Color vision previews

Compare how #2EC00D appears in each simulation. When two chart lines or status indicators become hard to tell apart, a label, shape or line pattern gives readers another way to distinguish them. Individual perception varies.

Protanopia

A red–green color vision deficiency. Without a distinct response from long-wavelength cones, some reds and greens can look alike, and reds can appear darker.
