Daemonite's Material UI is a cross-platform and fully responsive front-end interface based on Google Material Design. This lightweight framework is built using Bootstrap 4. The basic idea behind this project is to combine the visual language of Google Material Design with the front-end technology of the popular Bootstrap framework.
A visual language for our users that synthesizes the classic principles of good design with the innovation and possibility of technology and science. This is material design. http://www.google.com/design/spec/material-design/introduction.html
Detailed documentation site is work in progress. Let us know what you think at the Daemon Labs forum.
The primary goal of this project is to give all Bootstrap components and elements a Google Material Design look, so it allows web developers to continue using the exact same Bootstrap HTML markup they are familiar with, but presents them a final outcome that is in line with the principles and specifics of Google Material Design.
A secondary goal of this project is to add support for some unique Google Material Design components such as floating buttons and labels, pickers, and steppers, to name a few, which cannot be achieved by transforming existing Bootstrap components.
Because these components will require additional markup (some may require additional JavaScript), they will be documented separately in Material's documentation (work-in-progress).
Currently based on Bootstrap v4.0.0-beta.
