Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Material Design > "Digital paper and ink. Interfaces built on the physical properties of stacked material." ## When to Use Use this sub-style when the user's request matches the aesthetic described above. This is a child reference of the `design-it` skill and is not meant to be triggered directly. ## Core Principles 1. **Z-Axis Elevation**: Everything exists on a specific layer. Shadows communicate hierarchy and state. 2. **Meaningful Motion**: Animations are continuous, guiding the user's focus from one state to the next (e.g., ripple effects, shared element transitions). 3. **Structured Layout**: Strict adherence to an 8dp baseline grid and specific component anatomies (cards, FABs, app bars). ## Visual DNA - **Colors**: Works excellently with **Desert Mirage** or **Minimalist Slate**. Utilize primary, secondary, surface, and error semantic mapping. - **Typography**: `Roboto` or `Google Sans` (or equivalent clean geometric sans). Stick strictly to the Material Type Scale (H1-H6, Subtitle, Body, Caption, Overline). - **Shapes**: Moderately rounded corners (4px to 16px). ## Web Implementation - Do not reinvent the wheel: mimic standard Material elevations. - **CSS Example**: ```c

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill material-design --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
