Funny this should come up - This past month I've been exploring building web apps using http://www.material-ui.com/. They have some of the best documentation I've ever seen for a front end framework. Easy code examples right in the component that you can play with and then peek at the source code.

It makes such a difference to be able to see the output and then quickly look at the source code. Really wonderful development experience.

Sadly Android developers don't share the same experience.

It was required lots of vocal complaints for them to start having any kind of Material Design support on Android libraries.

True, also there are many items in the Google Design Guidelines that don't have any code example of how to implement them in real life.

material-ui.com is not an official library by Google.

Correct, it's a react wrapper that implements the Material UI guidelines.
