Angular 7 - Issue with Loading Material Component Styles

In the midst of my latest Angular 7 project, I decided to incorporate the out-of-the-box material components.

Unfortunately, there seems to be a hiccup with some of the CSS not being applied and pinpointing the cause is proving to be an elusive task.

For instance, despite declaring an input as matInput, the styling fails to take effect, leaving it resembling a plain HTML input. Interestingly, other elements like cards appear styled as intended.

Here lies my angular.json configuration: https://i.sstatic.net/hXXmc.png

The styles.scss file can be found here: https://i.sstatic.net/1wCjd.png

Sneak peek of the under-styled input field: https://i.sstatic.net/OzMFn.png

Could it be that I overlooked a crucial stylesheet or missed an important step? Why does my matInput remain unformatted?

Answer №1

If you're looking for guidance on how to declare a form in Angular, here's an example from my previous experience that might be helpful:

<form (submit)="onSaveProject(projectForm, projectForm.value)" #projectForm="ngForm" *ngIf="!isloading">
 <mat-form-field>
  <input matInput type="text" name="projectDescirption" 
  [ngModel]="project?.projectDescirption"
  required
  minlength="5"
  placeholder="Project Description"
  #projectDescirption="ngModel">
  <mat-error *ngIf="projectDescirption.invalid">Please describe the project (minimum 5 characters)</mat-error>
 </mat-form-field>
</form>

Don't forget to import the necessary modules. Here's an example of how I did it in a past project:

app.module.ts

import { 
 MatInputModule,
 MatCardModule,
 MatButtonModule,
 MatFormFieldModule,
 MatToolbarModule,
 MatExpansionModule,
 MatProgressSpinnerModule,
 MatPaginatorModule,
 MatDialogModule,
 MatOptionModule,
 MatSelectModule,
 MatDividerModule,
 MatCheckboxModule,
 MatSlideToggleModule,
 MatProgressBarModule,
 MatDatepickerModule,
 MatNativeDateModule
} from '@angular/material';

@NgModule({
 imports: [
  MatInputModule,
  MatCardModule,
  MatButtonModule,
  MatFormFieldModule,
  MatToolbarModule,
  MatExpansionModule,
  MatProgressSpinnerModule,
  MatPaginatorModule,
  MatDialogModule,
  MatOptionModule,
  MatSelectModule,
  MatDividerModule,
  MatCheckboxModule,
  MatSlideToggleModule
]
})
