## What it is
A family of modular, customizable Material Design UI component libraries for Android (Views), Web, and iOS. The Android Views library is now in maintenance mode as Google shifts Android UI development to Jetpack Compose.

## Use cases
- build android apps with material design components
- implement material design 3 in a web app
- add material styled buttons and cards to ios
- maintain an existing views-based android app using MDC
- customize material theming across platforms

## When to choose
- you maintain an existing Android Views app already using MDC
- you need Material Design components for web or iOS
- you want a mature, well-documented design system library

## When to avoid
- starting a new Android project - use Jetpack Compose Material 3 instead
- you need new features or active development on Android Views
- you want a framework-agnostic design system outside Material Design

## Facets

- domain: frontend, web-development, mobile-development, android-tools, web-design
