How to install Angular Material

Replace temporarily custom builders by default ones in angular.json

@angular-builders/custom-webpack:browser => @angular-devkit/build-angular:browser
@angular-builders/custom-webpack:dev-server => @angular-devkit/build-angular:dev-server

Add Angular Material using ng add command:

ng add @angular/material

You will get the following questions:

? Choose a prebuilt theme name, or "custom" for a custom theme: *Choose any theme you like here*
? Set up global Angular Material typography styles? *Yes* 
? Set up browser animations for Angular Material? *Do not include / error if you choose Include*

Angular Material Library is now installed in your project.

Put back custom builders in angular.json

@angular-devkit/build-angular:browser => @angular-builders/custom-webpack:browser
@angular-devkit/build-angular:dev-server => @angular-builders/custom-webpack:dev-server
