Prepare the rice vermicelli noodles according to the package instructions, typically by soaking them in hot water for 3-5 minutes until soft. Drain and set aside.
Julienne the carrot, cucumber, and red bell pepper into thin strips. Shred the purple cabbage finely.
Wash and pat dry the fresh mint and cilantro leaves. Set them aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, juice of the lime, hoisin sauce, and water to make a simple dipping sauce. Set aside.
Fill a large shallow bowl or pie dish with warm water. Dip one rice paper wrapper into the water for 5 seconds until it softens slightly and becomes pliable.
Place the softened rice paper wrapper on a clean work surface. Layer a small handful of rice vermicelli noodles, julienned vegetables, shredded purple cabbage, and a few mint and cilantro leaves in the center of the wrapper.
Fold the sides of the rice paper wrapper inward, then tightly roll it upward from the bottom until sealed, forming a spring roll. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling ingredients.
Slice the spring rolls in half if desired and serve immediately with the prepared dipping sauce.
