# bootstrap-material-design [![build status](https://travis-ci.org/FezVrasta/bootstrap-material-design.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/FezVrasta/bootstrap-material-design) [![gratipay](https://img.shields.io/gratipay/FezVrasta.svg)](https://gratipay.com/FezVrasta) [![Bower version](https://badge.fury.io/bo/bootstrap-material-design.svg)](https://github.com/FezVrasta/bootstrap-material-design) [![banner](demo/imgs/banner.jpg)](#) This Bootstrap theme is an easy way to use the new [Material Design guidelines by Google](http://www.google.com/design/spec/material-design/introduction.html) in your Bootstrap 3 based application. Just include the theme, after the Bootstrap CSS and include the JavaScript at the end of your document (just before the `` tag), and everything will be converted to Material Design (Paper) style. **NOTE**: This theme is still in development, it could be used on production websites but I can't guarantee compatibility with previous versions. Check out [the demo at this link](http://fezvrasta.github.io/bootstrap-material-design/). ## How to install You may install this theme using Bower or Meteor: - Bower : `bower install bootstrap-material-design` - Meteor: `meteor add fezvrasta:bootstrap-material-design` If you prefer, you can include this framework in your project using our official CDN: - [Bootstrap Material Design on CDNJS.com](https://cdnjs.com/libraries/bootstrap-material-design) - [Bootstrap Material Design on JSDelivr.com](http://www.jsdelivr.com/#!bootstrap.material-design) ## Getting started Add the necessary links to your `` element for fonts and stylsheets: ```html ``` ## Support If you like this project you may support it by donating via Gittip, starring this repository or reporting issues.

[![gittip](demo/imgs/gittip-button.jpg)](https://www.gratipay.com/FezVrasta/) [![issues](demo/imgs/issues-button.jpg)](https://github.com/FezVrasta/bootstrap-material-design/issues) ## Contribute Please see the [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) file. ## Development We are using Grunt to automate the workflow and build process. Ensure you have nodejs installed and grunt-cli installed globally. After cloning the repo, run `npm install` to ensure you have all dev dependencies. ### Grunt - `grunt build` - run the tests and compile the less/sass. See [Gruntfile.js](Gruntfile.js) for details on targets. - `grunt test` - browser-based Jasmine unit tests. - `grunt serve` - build and fire up an http server with live-reload and a watch for development purposes. ### LESS & SASS The bootstrap 3.x compatible version (master) is developed using LESS, with an automated conversion to SASS. The upcoming 4.x compatible version is being actively developed using SASS on the `v4-dev` branch. ## Documentation Material Design ([spec](http://www.google.com/design/spec/material-design/introduction.html)) for Bootstrap provides styles for bootstrap based markup to comply with Material Design concepts. ### Customization #### Colors There are 17 color variations (in addition to the classic 4 variations) described by the Material Design color palette: ![palette](docs/assets/img/material-design-color-palette.jpg) ##### Compile your customized distributable If you are using the static css files, you may want to use your own color variation. To do so: 1. Download the source or obtain the source with bower 2. Edit the `less/_variables.less` file and alter the color variables. You are most likely interested in altering `@brand-primary`. For a list of material design color palette variables, refer to `less/_colors.less` ```less @brand-primary: @teal; @brand-success: @green; @brand-danger: @red; @brand-warning: @deep-orange; @brand-info: @light-blue; ``` 3. Compile and test your distributable css by running `grunt serve`, this will launch your browser to the test site. Peruse and verify your color choices 4. From your application, you may now reference the compiled css files in `dist/css` ##### Customize via less variables If you are referencing source from your own application's less file, you may simply customize the colors by redefining the color variables _after_ including bootstrap-material-design. See above for a description of variables. ### Forms All inputs should be surrounded by a standard `.form-group`, and as such `material.js` will enforce this. The `.form-group` is used to signal different input styles and variations. See the examples for variations. #### Sizing In general, it is preferred that sizing be altered with either `.form-group-sm` or `.form-group-lg`. Due to the interconnected nature of inputs, labels, margins and padding, `material.js` will convert any use of `.input-sm` or `.input-lg` to `.form-group-sm` or `.form-group-lg` in order to reduce the necessary markup/variations and get a standard sizing with fewer side effects. #### Buttons Buttons are flat by default, without shadows. Add `.btn-raised` to a button to add a permanent shadow to it. See the [button examples](http://fezvrasta.github.io/bootstrap-material-design/bootstrap-elements.html#buttons) #### Inputs ##### Labels The following classes should be placed on the `.form-group` to indicate the label style: - `.label-floating` - renders label as a placeholder, that animates above the field upon focus - `.label-static` - renders label above the field. `input placeholder` attribute can also be used in conjunction - `.label-placeholder` - renders a label as a placeholder only - no label, but use of `input placeholder` attribute - same rendering as `.label-placeholder` ##### Hints Upon focus, a hint can be displayed. Use any `p | span` with `.help-block`. ##### Examples ```html

This is a hint as a p.help-block.hint

This is a hint as a span.help-block.hint
This is a hint as a span.help-block.hint
``` #### Radio, Checkbox, Toggle Be sure to inspect the source of the demos to find proper markup examples. Remember to use the proper HTML markup. Radio example: ```html
``` ### Icons Bootstrap Material Design supports the full range of original Material Design icons! [See the full set of material design icons at the material icons library.](https://www.google.com/design/icons/) It’s easy to incorporate icons into your web page. [Here’s an example](http://fezvrasta.github.io/bootstrap-material-design/bootstrap-elements.html#icon): ``` face face ``` Please be sure that the fonts are properly setup, see [Getting Started](#getting-started). ### Cards A card will expand to fill all of the available width (e.g. column's width). Card's height will be automatically resized to match width. Here is an example on how to use it: ```html

Lorem Ipsum Dolor

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry.

``` Cards will adapt to column's width. The card below will have width equal to col-lg-6: ```html

``` ## material.js `material.js` is a jQuery plugin that adds some magic to your markup and allows Material Design for Bootstrap to style some elements like inputs, checkboxes, radios etc. ### Functions * `$.material.init()` - shortcut to run all the following commands: * `$.material.ripples()` will apply ripples.js to the default elements. * `$.material.input()` will enable the MD style to the text inputs, and other kind of inputs (number, email, file etc). * `$.material.checkbox():` will enable the MD style to the checkboxes (remember to follow the markup guidelines explained in the [Inputs section](#inputs). * `$.material.radio():` will enable the MD style to the checkboxes (remember to follow the markup guidelines explained in the Inputs section. ### Apply only to specific elements Every function expects an optional value that will be used as a selector for the function; for example, `$.material.ripples("#selector, #foobar")` will apply Ripples.js only to `#selector` and `#foobar`. The functions that allows an optional selector are `$.material.ripples`, `$.material.input`, `$.material.checkbox` and `$.material.radio`. You can even override the default values using the `$.material.options` function. The default values are: ```javascript $.material.options = { "withRipples": ".btn:not(.btn-link), .card-image, .navbar a:not(.withoutripple), .nav-tabs a:not(.withoutripple), .withripple", "inputElements": "input.form-control, textarea.form-control, select.form-control", "checkboxElements": ".checkbox > label > input[type=checkbox]", "radioElements": ".radio > label > input[type=radio]" } ``` ### Arrive.js support If you need to dynamically add elements to your DOM then you may need to include `Arrive.js` before `Material.js`. This will automatically apply `material.js` to every new element added via JavaScript. ## Plugins Material Design for Bootstrap comes with styling support for various external scripts: ### SnackbarJS Create snackbars and toasts with the [SnackbarJS plugin](https://github.com/FezVrasta/snackbarjs). The default toast style is the squared one (snackbar style). If you like to use the rounded style (toast style), please add the `toast` class to the `style` option of SnackbarJS. ### RipplesJS This is part of the Material Design for Bootstrap project and is a plain JavaScript script which creates the ripple effect when clicking on the specified elements. At the moment RipplesJS does not have its own repository but it will probably have one in the future. You may want to set a custom color to the ripples of a specific element, to do so write: ```html ``` ### noUiSlider Make cross-browser sliders and get them styled with Material Design thanks to the support provided by this theme. Read more about [noUiSlider here](http://refreshless.com/nouislider/). ### Dropdown.js Finally a dropdown plugin that transforms select inputs in nice dropdowns and does not drive you crazy. Read more about [Dropdown.js here](https://github.com/FezVrasta/dropdown.js). ### Selectize.js Transform select and multi-select inputs into advanced text inputs. Material Design for BS provides a full replacement of the plugin's CSS, so don't include it. Read more about [selectize.js](http://brianreavis.github.io/selectize.js/). ### Bootstrap Material Datepicker A Material Design datepicker created to be used with Material Design for Bootstrap.
