In this palette the hues fall in the rose, green and cyan families, spread across 353 degrees of the OKLCH hue circle. Neon palettes keep chroma between 0.2 and 0.3, and lightness between 72% and 92%, which is why the set feels consistent.

Suggested roles: #FED7E5 as the background, #7AE6FC for cards and surfaces, #40E790 as the primary brand color, #FE919B as the accent, and #2A1219 for text (a computed darker shade of Salmon, because no palette color is readable on that background).
