How to Use Material Design in Android App?

Question

I\'ve gone to the Android Developer documentation to see how I can use material design, here:

Answer 1

Install SDK platform of Android 5.0 SDK then update your Support Library and Support Repository to the latest version via the SDK-Manager.

Take a look at this link for creating material app

http://developer.android.com/training/material/index.html

With support libraries, you can provide similar behaviour on older devices like:

• Using the Material Theme
• Subset of UI widgets like
  • EditText
  • Spinner
  • RadioButton

Also take a look at android design support library.

But for using some concepts like FloatingActionButton in your application you can use this library : https://github.com/makovkastar/FloatingActionButton
