in plain english

Material Design Lite is a collection of user interface components built with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. These components follow Material Design, the visual design system named in the project's topics. The goal is to let web developers add consistently styled interface elements to websites without building them from scratch. The README is brief and primarily serves as a redirect notice: Material Design Lite v2 has evolved into a successor project called Material Components for the web, hosted in a separate repository. No further detail about the original project's specific components, configuration, or usage is provided in the available data, so a complete explanation is not possible from the provided data alone.
