Buggy Disappointment
Using the buttons in the Gutenberg editor caused problems. The preview keeps breaking. The cards are basically unusable, because they only allow very basic text without any formatting. They show the markup for any html you try to use to add an image or headline or bold... Cards look ok in the editor, but not on the front end. I tried the theme as well, but not any better. I gave up there. I was really excited to use these, but had to uninstall.

Incorporates Materials Design WELL!
This plugin is great! Thanks for making it available. Makes utilizing MDC super easy! I think the low marks are reflective of people that don't know or understand the Material Design concept. Great work!

The world needed this
Like so many SaaS businessess, my company markets a web application that has been developed in ReactJS with Material-UI. However, our marketing-oriented website is a WordPress site where the marketing people are capable of editing content and posting stuff. The problem is: how do you maintain a coherent user experience across both channels? Now, thanks to this template, it's not just possible, but also easy. I'm working with the beta release and it's already awesome - I'm really looking forward to future versions.
