Material Design Lite (or MDL for short) is an implementation of Material Design for the web by Google. Take note that Material Design Lite is currently in **limited support**, which means that no further development is taking place. Consider using Material Design Components for the Web instead.
Current version
v1.3.0
Purpose
From its GitHub repository:
An implementation of Material Design components in vanilla CSS, JS, and HTML.
Material Design Lite (MDL) lets you add a Material Design look and feel to your static content websites. It doesn't rely on any JavaScript frameworks or libraries. Optimized for cross-device use, gracefully degrades in older browsers, and offers an experience that is accessible from the get-go.
Support
As of 4 March 2018, MDL is currently in limited support. This means that no more work is taking place in the project.
Limited support
Material Design Lite is now in limited support, with development having moved to the Material Components for the web repository.
No further development is taking place in MDL by the core team, but we are happy to review PRs, fix critical bugs and push out new releases. No breaking changes will be accepted.
