Implementing Angular MaterialModule for a Simple Application

This challenge focuses on integrating Angular Material into a basic Angular application. Angular Material provides a set of pre-built UI components and styling following Google's Material Design guidelines, significantly speeding up development and ensuring a consistent look and feel. Your task is to create a simple Angular module that imports and configures MaterialModule, and then utilizes a Material component (a button) within a component.

Problem Description

You need to create a new Angular module named MaterialModule and configure it to use Angular Material. Within this module, you'll also create a simple component called MaterialButtonComponent that displays a Material button. The button should have a defined label and a style (e.g., primary color). The goal is to demonstrate a functional integration of Angular Material into your application.

Key Requirements:

  • Create MaterialModule: This module should import BrowserModule, BrowserAnimationsModule, and MatButtonModule from @angular/platform-browser, @angular/platform-browser/animations, and @angular/material respectively.
  • Configure Material Theme: Import MatButtonModule and declare it in the imports array of MaterialModule.
  • Create MaterialButtonComponent: This component should display a Material button using <button mat-button> element.
  • Button Label: The button should display the text "Click Me!".
  • Button Style: The button should be styled as a primary button (using mat-primary class).
  • Module Export: MaterialModule should be exported so it can be used in other parts of the application.

Expected Behavior:

When the application runs, the MaterialButtonComponent should render a Material button with the label "Click Me!" and the primary style. The button should visually conform to Material Design principles.

Edge Cases to Consider:

  • Ensure that BrowserAnimationsModule is imported and configured correctly, as Material components rely on animations.
  • Verify that the Material theme is applied correctly. If no theme is explicitly defined, the default Material theme will be used.
  • Handle potential errors during module import or component rendering.

Examples

Example 1:

Input:  No specific input, the goal is to create the module and component.
Output: A functional Angular module and component displaying a Material button.
Explanation: The module imports necessary Material components and configures them. The component renders a Material button with the specified label and style.

Example 2:

Input:  Application with no Material integration.
Output: Application with a Material button rendered correctly.
Explanation: The `MaterialModule` is imported into the application's root module (e.g., `AppModule`), and the `MaterialButtonComponent` is used within a template.

Constraints

  • Angular Version: Assume Angular version 16 or later.
  • Angular Material Version: Assume the latest stable version of Angular Material.
  • Module Structure: The solution must be structured as a separate Angular module (MaterialModule).
  • Component Usage: The MaterialButtonComponent should be a standalone component within the MaterialModule.
  • No External Dependencies: The solution should only use Angular Material and core Angular modules.

Notes

  • You can use the Angular CLI to generate the module and component skeletons.
  • Remember to import and declare the necessary modules and components.
  • Pay attention to the Material Design styling classes to achieve the desired look and feel.
  • Consider using a simple template for the MaterialButtonComponent to keep the focus on the Material integration.
  • The challenge focuses on the integration of Material, not complex application logic.
