Ensure sufficient contrast for text, especially when using yellow (#FFEB3B) which requires very dark text (e.g., #212121 or black).
Avoid pairing red (#F44336) and green (#4CAF50) for critical information due to potential colorblindness issues.
White text on #212121, #F44336, or #00BCD4 generally provides excellent contrast.
