McNuke

Lush chartreuse green with warmer punch for highlights
About McNuke
McNuke is the green you notice on a status light that's been pushed higher but still feels controlled, not washed out. It lands brighter and more centered, with a crisp lime-green undertone and less of that heavy CRT bite you get from Cyber Neon Green.
I use it when the UI needs clean "go" emphasis that stays readable on dark panels without sliding toward Acid's yellow warmth or Neon Green's highlighter feel. Think dashboards and factory monitoring screens where active route overlays, production state dots, and alert-adjacent chart highlights have to stay distinct. Compared to Electric Laser Lime, McNuke holds its punch with a touch more lightness and a smoother edge, so line separation doesn't collapse into a single glow.
Keep it as an accent, or pair it with charcoal and deeper greens, otherwise it can start to feel like the whole interface is lit by the same signal lamp.
