I am currently using Angular 8 and I want to use material design. I found that there are different versions of material design libraries provided online. I am not sure which one I should use. Please correct me if my understanding is wrong. Thank you.

  1. Angular material
  2. material design components for web
  3. angular-mdc-web by trimox

I think 2nd library is directly from material design but 1st and 3rd are from third party. How do I integrate material-components-web with Angular 8? Do I need to wrap it? If so, how do I do it?

I prefer the 2nd one because it is not by third party and it is directly under material design.

    The first option is not really third party, it is the Material implementation for Angular. You can read more about it here: https://material.angular.io/ – robbieAreBest Nov 16 '19 at 02:04
  • Although the library is provided by google, `angular material` is not up to date with the most current `material design` spec. `mdc for web` has the latest spec. – UxMishi Nov 16 '19 at 02:06

    https://material.angular.io/ is the official page to Angular Material. If you want to know the differences then please look at this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/41180498/material-components-for-the-web-vs-angular-material-2 – stayingcool Nov 16 '19 at 02:07
  • Thank you. I got the idea of that post which is using whichever library helps me accomplish my goals in the best way possible. But that post is answered in 2016, it's a bit outdated. Is there any update of it? Overall, is angular-mdc-web is better or angular material is better? Which library does usually get updates first? – UxMishi Nov 18 '19 at 19:01
