FR: Material "Stepper" for a wizard-like sequence of steps

[salamanders]

It would make a nice addition to mdl, and (as I recently found out) is a pain to code yourself.

[surma]

As far as I remember, this is not listed as a component in the MD spec which is what we are trying to adhere to. We provide all the elements you’d need to build this yourself, but something like this is way too high level to go into the MDL library itself – especially considering the “L” stands for “Lite”.

@surma I did find this link, suggesting otherwise: https://www.google.com/design/spec/components/steppers.html

Ah, steppers were added to the spec this month. So, this is a good feature request for future inclusion.

[sgomes]

@Garbee Do you think this is something that should be merged with Dialog, or is it something functionally different, in your mind?

[Garbee]

Stepper is a completely separate spec from Dialogs. It is for actual wizards whether on-page or in a dialog.

I already have mostly-working JS (minus dynamically adding/removing steps from the process), just need to redo styles to adhere to MD. Not going to work on that though until 2.x's lifetime.

[sgomes]

Thanks, @Garbee! Let's keep this feature request open and separate, then.

Any improvement !?

[Garbee]

As I already said, no core effort is going into this until 2.x is released. We have bigger things to do than this.

Further, we probably wouldn't accept a PR for this before 2.x since things are going to change quite a bit for JavaScript it seems. This is a complex component we'd rather have done right the first time.

For now, this is left to userland implementations.

+1 for steppers.

https://github.com/shivasurya/materialsteppers hey guys inspired and implemented for android! check it out if anyone needs

[Garbee]

@shivasurya This is a web development library, Android components aren't really useful for developers to integrate with their projects.

[shivasurya]

completely sorry for off topic ! btw if anyone interested in java,i hope they can follow.

What's the status of this issue?

[Garbee]

No effort going towards implementing this currently. It will be done post-v2 launch.
