## What it is
Varlet is a Vue 3 component library based on Material Design 2 and 3, offering 70+ lightweight general-purpose components for mobile and desktop. It supports TypeScript, on-demand imports, theme customization, dark mode, internationalization, SSR, and ships with official VSCode and Nuxt integrations.

## Use cases
- build a mobile web app with material design components in vue 3
- add a ui component library to my vue3 project
- create responsive desktop and mobile interfaces with vue
- customize a material design theme with dark mode support
- build a nuxt app with a vue3 component library
- need accessible vue3 components with typescript support

## When to choose
- you are building Vue 3 apps and want Material Design 2/3 components
- you need both mobile and desktop support from one library
- you want SSR/Nuxt compatibility, dark mode, and i18n out of the box
- you prefer a lightweight library with on-demand imports and strong test coverage

## When to avoid
- your project uses Vue 2 or another framework like React or Svelte
- you need a non-Material design language or a fully custom design system
- you require a very large ecosystem of enterprise components like some bigger UI suites provide
