Harmony and structure

In this palette the hues fall in the red and orange families, spread across 18 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.
Temperature and mood

That combination suits gaming and esports, nightlife flyers and technology launches, and it is a good fit when you want a design to feel hot, loud and impossible to ignore.
Accessibility and contrast
The strongest pairing is Coral (#FB7E4F) with Apricot (#FEDBD3) at a contrast ratio of 1.98:1, which is below the WCAG AA minimum of 4.5:1. Across all 10 possible pairs, 0 reach the 4.5:1 AA level for normal text and 0 more reach 3:1 for large text.
No other palette color reaches 4.5:1 on the background (#FEDBD3), so this page suggests #2A140C for text, a darkened Coral that reaches 13.52:1. Check any pair you use in the contrast checker.
Under deuteranopia (reduced green sensitivity), #FB7E4F and #F9976A and #FECCB0 and #FEDBD3 may look alike, so avoid using that difference alone to carry meaning. Under tritanopia (reduced blue sensitivity), #FECCB0 and #FEDBD3 may look alike, so avoid using that difference alone to carry meaning.
How to use it
Suggested roles: #FEDBD3 as the background, #FECCB0 for cards and surfaces, #F9976A as the primary brand color, #FCAC98 as the accent, and #2A140C for text (a computed darker shade of Coral, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Use the lightest color for large areas, the mid tones for structure, and the darkest for text. Add contrast through lightness, since hue will not do it for you.
Typical uses for a neon palette include gaming and esports, nightlife flyers, technology launches and music visuals. Open it in the generator to lock the colors you love and reroll the rest, or in the visualizer to see it on real layouts.
