"Good Material to start with"

3/5

What do you like best about Angular Material?

Explanation of the basic modules is done very nicely. If there is a newcomer who wants to start from scratch then he/she can refer to the material.

The examples provided for the basic start and the explanation of those topics couldn't have been any easier.

I also liked how every module is so interactive and has examples to support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Angular Material?

Advance topics could have been better. People who are new might find it tough to understand those due to a lack of easy explanation. It is fine though for someone who has experience.

I would also recommend maybe have a live compiler attached to every module such that the user can instantly code to interact and understand the topics online.

Limited or maybe not very well explanation of RxJs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Angular Material:

I would vouch for this especially for beginners. This is the perfect place to start with Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Angular Material solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am currently trying to create an interceptor and also directives that would bring the change all around the application and will omit the chances of bad data.

The implementation is being done only for POST and PUT HTTP calls.

In the beginning, I had to understand the basic idea of interceptors and directives for which I further looked upon the material and found it quite comprehensive and easy.

I was also able to clear some concepts on DI.

I also work with RxJs and NgRx but the material could have been a little better.

I found it way too brief to be able to grasp it soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A UI based component library for Angular."

4.5/5

What do you like best about Angular Material?

The pre designed components can be used to quickly build applications with amazing styling. It reduces the type which increases the performance. The simplicity of the components is amazing . the huge number of components makes it easier to re-use for other projects as well. It is the best designed Material Design frontend UI framework in the market. The wide range of materials in Angular Material is free of cost. The design and User interface is the best and the code is easy to understand. There are no issues with compatibility while switching between different versions of Angular Material. The components are easy to use as one has to just import them and use them. The amazing User Interface makes the user and the developer interact more with the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Angular Material?

After the installation once the theme is selected changing it can be sometimes complex and time taking. Components like Date-Time picker aren’t available and there should be more directives added in the components. Integrating it with other plugins besides Angular can be sometimes painstaking and it doesn’t work. Customization of the built in components can be difficult. The code base is sometimes cumbersome and finding the bugs in the code can sometimes take longer than expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
