Heat oven to 325 degrees. Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, light brown sugar, salt and butter until well combined. Pour the mixture into a 9-inch pie plate and press it firmly against the bottom and sides.
Bake the crust for 15 minutes, until the color begins to deepen slightly. Cool completely.
While the crust cools, prepare the filling: In a medium bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk, yolks, lime zest and salt. Add the lime juice and whisk until evenly combined and noticeably thicker, about 1 minute.
Pour the filling into the cooled crust and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, until the curd is set at the edges and slightly jiggly in the middle. Transfer to a rack to cool completely at room temperature, about 1 hour, then cover and refrigerate for at least 3 hours and up to overnight.
Just before serving, make the topping: In a large bowl, beat the cream, confectioners’ sugar and salt with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until you have stiff peaks, about 2 minutes. Top the chilled pie with the cream, and then finely grate lime zest on top to garnish. Slice and serve.
