React-MDL
Deprecation notice
This library is now deprecated. It's higly recommended to use Material Design Components instead.
Description
React-MDL is a set of React components build on top of Material Design Litev1.2.1
Requirements
Instead of using the official material.css
and material.js
files from the MDL project, you should use the files we provide in /extra. The reason to that is because the official Layout
component is not fully compatible with React. We made a patch and we re-exported everything so people can still use it.
If you're worried about the changes we made, you can take a look at the patch note or read about the issue in this ticket.

Create React App
The above instructions won’t work if you use Create React App with react-scripts
higher than 0.4.0
.
If you use it, add only this one line to your HTML:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/icon?family=Material+Icons">
Then add these lines to src/index.js
:
import 'react-mdl/extra/material.css';
import 'react-mdl/extra/material.js';
Installation
npm install --save react-mdl
Usage
You can use React-MDL through a bundler like webpack or browserify by importing react-mdl
in your application:
import { Button, Card, CardText } from 'react-mdl';
// or...
import Button from 'react-mdl/lib/Button';
import { Card, CardText, CardActions } from 'react-mdl/lib/Card';
Alternatively, you can include node_modules/react-mdl/out/ReactMDL.js
as a script, but you'll likely want to copy it to a folder outside of node_modules
first, such as lib
or vendor
. Then a global ReactMDL
will be available:
const { Button, Card, CardText } = ReactMDL;
For a listing of available components, as well as specific usage information, check out the Components page on the website.
Some extra components can be found in the react-mdl-extra package.
