Card Based Layout for Site-Wide Agreement

[dazzaji]

Legal terms are a great fit for Material Design and especially for cards. The ideal would be if the content of each provision existed as a file in an expected location (GitHub ideally) and format (ideally as json or csv but highly structured markdown could also suffice). A provision would typically be like a paragraph in a contract or license.
