Material Design is a layout engine developed by Google that enables web and app developers to create high-end user interfaces for both mobile and the internet. It is used by most Android versions of Google applications. Most websites made by Google use Material Design. However, some third party designers also use the term ‘Material Design’ to refer to a specific layout element or color scheme used in conjunction with a particular design theme.
Parallax is one of the key features of Material Design. Parallax is a revolutionary technique of providing 3D reading experience to any web page. Google has made full use of parallax in its Android apps and website. Parallax is one of the main features of the Google Calendar, Gmail, Google+, and Google Places.
