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 specification for use in AngularJS single-page applications (SPAs).
AngularJS Material is an implementation of Google's Material Design Specification (2014-2017) for AngularJS (v1.x) developers.
For an implementation of the Material Design Specification (2018+), please see the Angular Material project which is built for Angular (v2+) developers.

Online Documentation and Demos
- Visit [material.angularjs.org](https://material.angularjs.org/) online to review the API, see the components in action via live demos, and to read our detailed guides which include the layout system, theming system, typography, and more. - Or you can build the documentation and demos locally; see [Build Docs & Demos](https://github.com/angular/material/tree/master/docs/README.md) for details. ## Building Developers can build AngularJS Material using NPM and gulp. First install or update your local project's **npm** dependencies: ```bash npm install ``` Install Gulp v3 globally: ```bash npm install -g gulp@3 ``` Then run the **gulp** tasks: ```bash # To build `angular-material.js/.css` and `Theme` files in the `/dist` directory gulp build # To build the AngularJS Material Docs and Demos in `/dist/docs` directory gulp docs ``` For development, use the `docs:watch` **NPM** script to run in dev mode: ```bash # To build the AngularJS Material Source, Docs, and Demos in watch mode npm run docs:watch ``` For more details on how the build process works and additional commands (available for testing and debugging) developers should read the [Build Guide](docs/guides/BUILD.md). ## Installing Build (Distribution Files) #### NPM For developers not interested in building the AngularJS Material library... use **NPM** to install and use the AngularJS Material distribution files. Change to your project's root directory. ```bash # To get the latest stable version, use NPM from the command line. npm install angular-material --save # To get the most recent, latest committed-to-master version use: npm install http://github.com/angular/bower-material#master --save ``` #### Other Dependency Managers Visit our [distribution repository](https://github.com/angular/bower-material/blob/master/README.md) for more details on how to install and use the AngularJS Material distribution files within your local project. #### CDN CDN versions of AngularJS Material are available. With the Google CDN, you will not need to download local copies of the distribution files. Instead, simply reference the CDN urls to easily use those remote library files. This is especially useful when using online tools such as [CodePen](http://codepen.io/) or [Plunker](http://plnkr.co/). ```html ``` Developers seeking the latest, most-current build versions can use [GitCDN.xyz](https://gitcdn.xyz/) to pull directly from our [distribution repository](https://github.com/angular/bower-material): ```html ``` Once you have all the necessary assets installed, add `ngMaterial` and `ngMessages` as dependencies for your app: ```javascript angular.module('myApp', ['ngMaterial', 'ngMessages']); ```
