Overview

The user wants a README for the Material plugin. I need to write it based on the plugin description, node list, and source README. The source README is minimal, so I'll rely mostly on the node list and descriptions. The plugin is called Material (@vancat/node-editor-package-materials). I need to cover: what the plugin is for, main node groups and what each is good for, and 2-3 short examples of how nodes combine. Name nodes in backticks exactly as given. Start with level-1 heading with plugin name. No installation, license, contributor sections. Under 600 words.
