Hey guys, Zach Fitzgerald here. I rolled out the "preview" edition to get initial feedback and validate my idea that "Ionic Material" was something the community wants. I've been reached out to by some very notable individuals in the Angular and Ionic network, which has reinforced the reality that the interest is here and is worth devoting my donated time.

Right now, stuff's going to be broken if you try to drop it in to a typical Ionic project. It totally is, and we're aware. The upcoming release is actually the first "workable" release, complete with an API filled with "easy add" classes for material motion and design. We have it so you will literally just be adding a couple classes here and there to activate behavior and style. It's pretty sweet and I can't wait for the community to jump into once we get it committed in the coming weeks (April aim). These are admittedly the worst words to live by, but we're close: Hang tight :)

Thanks so much for the interest - if you'd love to help with some directives, SASS, gulp scripts, etc. please reach out - I take pull requests and am not idea averse. Follow me @ZachFitzgerald.

Currently it's in alpha, but definitely promising. The most beautiful thing about Ionic Material is that you don't have to change the way you develop Ionic apps in order to apply material design. It's more like an extension to Ionic and provides the material design as an adhoc library.

I just started using it. Need more time to come with a verdict. I would suggest you to try it out and see if it works for you. After all there is no harm in trying something new.

Well for me i worked basically with two lib

1. Material angular : material.angularjs.org
2. Materializecss : materializecss.com

Include them properly and start your hack and this is my simple repo url which include a small #nodejs server + #ionic app with #material design UI.

GITHUB REPO : github.com/cloud-boy/sev + it contains a nice readme walkthrough you will find yoursel right at home.

HappyCoding.
