How to use it
Suggested roles: #41E391 as the background, #E158BB for cards and surfaces, #D828A5 as the primary brand color, #19CF9C as the accent, and #052016 for text (a computed darker shade of Teal, because no palette color is readable on that background). A reliable starting split is 60% background and surface, 30% primary and 10% accent.
Give one side of the wheel to the background and structure and the other to calls to action. A small amount of the opposing hue goes a long way.
