#A9C377 sits at 81° on the color wheel, placing it in the chartreuse family of the neutral half of the spectrum. With 39% saturation and 62% lightness, it reads as a softly muted, light tone — a balanced mid-energy presence that sits comfortably alongside other UI tones. Its RGB mix of 169, 195, 119 produces a 10.76:1 contrast ratio against black, which clears WCAG AAA for body text in that pairing.
In RGB space #A9C377 is a clear variant of CSS tan — about 48 units away from #D2B48C. Designers reach for chartreuse hues at this saturation when the brief calls for a conversational, mid-energy register, and at this lightness when they want a present, comfortable mid-canvas voice. On screen the balanced cast tends to pair best with either warm or cool accents depending on the surrounding palette.
