A library of Svelte components implementing Google's Material Design guidelines.
Svelte Material UI is a comprehensive component library that brings Google's Material Design to Svelte applications. It provides a complete set of UI building blocks that follow Material Design principles, enabling the creation of modern, accessible, and visually consistent web interfaces. The library is based on Material Design Components - Web and includes additional components not found in the upstream library.
Svelte developers building web applications who want to implement Google's Material Design system with a faithful, type-safe component library. It is particularly suited for teams requiring consistent design, accessibility, and strong TypeScript support within the Svelte ecosystem.
Developers choose Svelte Material UI for its ergonomic Svelte integration, full TypeScript support including HTML attributes, and flexible APIs like arbitrary attribute addition and Svelte action integration. It offers a more comprehensive and Svelte-native implementation of Material Design compared to general-purpose UI libraries, with unique features like prop forwarding with "$" syntax and extended components beyond the standard MDC-Web set.
Svelte Material UI Components
Open-Awesome is built by the community, for the community. Submit a project, suggest an awesome list, or help improve the catalog on GitHub.
Includes comprehensive type definitions for all components and HTML attributes, ensuring type safety and enhanced IDE assistance in TypeScript projects, as highlighted in the README.
Allows adding arbitrary attributes to components and internal elements, enabling deep customization without breaking component structure, a unique feature mentioned in the README.
Supports Svelte actions with a concise syntax (e.g., use={[Action1, [Action2, props]]}), facilitating enhanced interactivity and reusability in line with Svelte's idioms.
Provides additional UI elements like Accordion and Paper not found in the upstream MDC-Web library, expanding Material Design coverage for Svelte applications.
The extensive migration documentation across multiple versions (v2 to v8) indicates a history of significant API shifts and breaking changes, complicating long-term maintenance and upgrades.
Latest version (v8) requires Svelte 5, forcing projects on older Svelte versions to use outdated branches (e.g., v7 for Svelte 4), which may lack updates and support.
Default Material Icon Font downloads all icons regardless of usage, increasing bundle size, and limits icon sets, requiring extra work for custom SVGs or optimizations as noted in the README.
