Using this palette

Vaporwave's visual language is specifically the pink-cyan-purple trio glowing against near-black, borrowed from CRT scanlines and late-'80s airbrush art, and #FFFB96 is included as the one warm high-key note that most vaporwave palettes skip — it's there for the rare highlight (a single word, a small badge) rather than a fill color, since too much yellow breaks the cool-neon illusion. #FF6EC7 and #01CDFE are near-complementary and genuinely vibrate against each other at full saturation, which is a feature here, not a bug — use that tension for edgy music/gaming/streaming brands, not for anything that needs to feel calm or trustworthy.
