[OT] Android Material Design

[Andre Garzia]

Dave,

Do not count brick in the same box as material design. Material Design is
the new HIG for Android, Web and ChromeOS properties of Google. It can be
used from Java and from HTML5. On HTML5 it uses Web Components which can be
used in Browsers that do not support Web Components thru the Polymer
polyfill and libraries. Mozilla Brick uses the plataform core library from
Polymer Project and builds standard Web Components out of it. Right now
Brick is changing directions and is nowhere close to the current HTML5
implementation of Material Design.

Back to LiveCode, the best way is to be inspired by Material Design and
create your own interface by using beautiful fonts, plain old rectangles
and some of the new graphic effect to give the illusion of depth which is
important in Material Design.

One could craft some reusable LiveCode groups that implement this type of
thing but it is not reusing nothing from Google, its just a new thing that
is inspired by.

Cheers
