4D for Android: Say Hello to Material Design 3

October 17, 2022

Product

To ensure that your application follows the latest design trends and that your users are blown away by a minimalistic, stylish, and great looking, we have updated the Material Design library.

What’s Material Design?

“Material is a design system created by Google to help teams build high-quality digital experiences for Android, iOS, Flutter, and the web.” As stated on the introduction page of Material Design.

Material Design aims to deliver high-quality results, giving users control over clearly marked, good-looking components that behave like real-world objects. And now, all this slickness can be brought to your 4D for Android app.

“Unlike real paper, our digital material can expand and reform intelligently. Material has physical surfaces and edges. Seams and shadows provide meaning about what you can touch.”

— Matias Duarte, VP of Material Design at Google
