   MEHTA WEB SOLUTIONS — MAIN STYLESHEET
   Palette — a neutral graphite base (like GitHub/Linear/VS Code
   dark mode) so colour comes ONLY from deliberate accents, not
   from a saturated navy field:
     Graphite #0A0B0F   near-black base, faint cool undertone only
     Indigo   #6D5EF0   primary action colour (buttons, CTAs)
     Emerald  #12B76A   growth / success / finance signal
     Teal     #14B8C4   secondary tech accent (icons, links, code)
     Gold     #FFB81C   heritage badge + stats/achievements accent
     Slate    rgba(255,255,255,.72)   body text
