In plain English

This repository was the source for Google's Web Fundamentals site, a collection of guides and best practices for building websites. It has been archived and is no longer active. The content that was here has moved to two other Google sites: web.dev and developer.chrome.com. No new issues or pull requests are being accepted. If you are looking for the articles and tutorials that used to live here, you will find them at those two destinations instead.
