## What it is
Brick is a collection of UI web components built on the Web Components standard for quickly assembling web application UIs using HTML syntax. This repository packages the distributions of all Brick components together along with build tooling.

## Use cases
- build web app UIs with reusable HTML custom elements
- add app bars, tab bars, dialogs and calendars to a web app
- use web components without writing JavaScript
- build mobile-style web application layouts
- create flipbox and deck transitions in HTML

## When to choose
- you are maintaining a legacy app already built on Brick or Polymer platform.js
- you need classic Web Components (HTML imports) compatible with older browsers

## When to avoid
- starting a new project - the project is unmaintained since 2015 and relies on deprecated Bower and HTML imports
- you need modern web components with broad community support
- you need a full framework with state management

## Facets

- function: ui-components, frontend-framework, web-framework
