Materialize

A modern responsive front-end framework based on Material Design

Visit Materialize

Materialize is a responsive front-end CSS framework based on Google's Material Design. It provides default styling, components, animations and transitions, aiming to reduce the amount of styling work needed when building interfaces. The framework applies a single responsive system across platforms to support a consistent user experience.

The framework includes Material Design components, refined animations and transitions, and detailed documentation with code examples. It is available on GitHub, with an upgrade path from version 0.100.2 to 1.0.0. The project also maintains a showcase of sites built with Materialize and offers official themes.

Materialize is intended for developers building responsive interfaces who want Material Design styling and components out of the box. The pages do not describe a free plan, trial, editions, or seat-based or usage-based packaging.
