Source Code

To load the source project you will need Visual Studio 2019. Don't worry if you have an earlier version, you can still use the compiled assemblies from NuGet (Install-Package MaterialDesignThemes). There are two demo projects in the solution, restore the necessary NuGet packages and correct the programming syntax that is not compatible with C# versions lower than C# 8.0 (currently used in Visual Studio 2019). Then, you should be able to fire both of these projects up. One is a "pure" Material Design project, the other illustrates how to combine with Dragablz & MahApps.
