How to Use Angular Material?

There are two ways to use Angular Material −

  • Local Installation − You can download the Angular Material libraries using npm, jspm, or bower on your local machine and include it in your HTML code.

  • CDN Based Version − You can include the angular-material.min.css and angular-material js files into your HTML code directly from the Content Delivery Network (CDN).
