Failed to resolve: com.google.android.material:material:1.0.0-alpha1

Question

So I\'m following the official documentation to add the Material Components library to my project https://github.com/material-components/material-components-android/blob/mas

Answer 1

Thought I'd share what fixed this for me now that I|O has started.

I had about the same initial setup as you. To get it working I had to change the following:

• compileSdkVersion to 'android-P'
• Support Libraries to '28.0.0-alpha1'
• include api 'com.android.support:design:28.0.0-alpha1' in the dependencies block.
• SDK Platform update - Android P Preview (latest)
• targetSdkVersion 'P'

I then did the ritualistic 'Invalidate Caches / Restart' and rebuilt the project for good measure.
