Material You Review
summary
Walks through Android’s UI evolution with concrete artifacts: a 2010 MVP app (Droid of the Day) that later gets a Material refresh and a 4.5‑star feature at Google I/O, the 2014 launch of Material with material color tokens and typography tokens, the 2018 Material Theme 2 update, and Material You / Material 3 for Compose. Demonstrates using Material Components, the web theme builder (outputs Kotlin files and light/dark palettes), dynamic colors from wallpaper, and notes missing shared element transitions in Compose.
