Build Material Design interfaces with Beer CSS, using its framework source and documentation.

About Beercss
Beer CSS is an MIT-licensed open source CSS framework for building Material Design interfaces. The repository describes it as the first CSS framework based on Material Design 3, and says it maps Material Design to semantic HTML.
The project offers three setup options: a default version that styles the whole document, a scoped version that applies to child elements of an element with the class "beer", and a custom element version that applies to child elements of a beer-css tag. It can be installed through CDN links or npm. The project states that it requires no build steps, configuration, or dependencies. Its size and performance claims, including being about 10 times smaller than other Material Design CSS frameworks, come from the project's own README.
