Getting Started With Material Design Course (How To)

Working With Material Design

Material Design is a system developed by Google to provide a common design language across Android apps.

In this course, we’ll explore how two physical materials, paper and ink, inspire the appearance and behavior of application content. We’ll also discuss when and how to use this design language and take a look at examples of existing apps. Finally, we’ll implement a Material Design UI kit to build a demo application wireframe using Adobe XD.
