Forest Green — 11-step color scale

Forest Green (#228b22) sits at 500, untouched. Every other step is Forest Green composited over white or black at a decreasing opacity, so the whole ramp stays in one hue family instead of drifting toward another color at the ends.

Each step is the base composited over white or black at the opacity shown.#228b22

For text that needs to pass AA on white, 600, 700, 800, 900, 950 clear the 4.5:1 line. On a dark surface, 50, 100, 200, 300, 400, 500 do.

Semantic colors from Forest Green

Success, warning, error and the rest are derived from Forest Green itself, then checked so they stay distinguishable from the base — and from each other — under the three types of color blindness. The distance below is CIEDE2000 after each simulation.

Derived from #228b22

Suggested	Protanopia	Deuteranopia	Tritanopia
success#00af6a	14.1	14.0	12.7
warning#bb4e00	11.6	5.1	60.7
error#b3428d	47.4	33.8	60.2
discovery#5866d5	56.8	53.7	15.1
info#007faa	45.8	45.2	7.9
neutral#4e5f4e	22.9	19.3	19.2

CIEDE2000 distance from the base under each simulation. The lowest of the three decides, and a dot marks the ones that land under 11.

The warning suggestion starts out colliding with Forest Green under Deuteranopia — ΔE₀₀ 5.1, below the 11 threshold — so the engine shifts its hue within the warning family until the pair pulls apart again.
