Material Design is a design language developed by Google. It is based on the idea of a "paper and ink" look and feel, using a grid-based layout, responsive animations, and transitions. This guide will provide an overview of Material Design principles and components.
Key Principles
- Material as a metaphor: The metaphor of paper and ink is used to create a physical and familiar feeling to the user.
- Motion provides meaning: Motion is used to help users understand what is happening and to provide a sense of continuity.
- Type: The type is considered as an essential part of the design, with a focus on readability and hierarchy.
- Color: Color is used to highlight important elements and to create a sense of depth.
Components
- Cards: Cards are used to display information in a meaningful and organized way.
- Lists: Lists are used to display collections of items, such as contacts or messages.
- Buttons: Buttons are used to trigger actions.
- Text Fields: Text fields are used for input.
