Material design for Angular

Material Design for AngularJS Apps

Material Design is a specification for a unified system of visual, motion, and interaction design that adapts across different devices.

Our goal is to deliver a lean, lightweight set of AngularJS-native UI elements that implement the material design system for use in Angular SPAs.

This project is still in early preview. It is a complementary effort to the Polymer project's paper elements collection.

Demo Site

You can see these components in action at http://material.angularjs.org

Development

This project is in early development via a small core team of Ionic Framework and AngularJS developers. We don't have guidelines yet for broader community involvement, although we hope to have some soon.

For issues, including progress on accessibility support for these UI elements, see the Issue Tracker
