How can you implement google material design with Python/Django?

Hi folks!

I am working on a project and want to implement Google Material Design. I am currently using bootstrap and general CSS as of now, but I like the flat look and appeal.

However, idk which library to bring into my project. When I Google "Google Material design" I see

materializecss.com/ https://getmdl.io/ https://www.muicss.com/

Anyone have any suggestions? Looking for good documentation. Ease of use, supported library.

Hey Caleb,

I think Materialize looks like your best bet. Whenever I'm considering a third party library, I head over to github and see which one has the most use. Materialize looks like it's the most popular.

The reason this matters is that it's more likely to be maintained and updated if lots of people are using it. Continued support should be one of the most important factors you consider when choosing a third-party tool.

Cheers :beers:

Great point Greg. I'm normally a gitlab person, I sometimes forget to just search for projects on github and see how many forks and contributors are on the project. Thanks for the help! Happy coding
