Nicely done. Material design looks great on Android. I'm not sure if I'm sold on material design for desktop use. I started building a material design look and feel for a new web app we're building and besides the fact that it lacked all the subtle animations no one really was digging the vibrant colors, flat buttons, and drop shadows. We ditched it for a more conservative theme and so far we've had no complaints.
Any Inbox users here? What do you think of the full desktop web app for Inbox? Personally while I love the mobile material design version, there's just something off about the desktop version.

My biggest gripe is the more restrictive keyboard shortcuts compared to Gmail, which basically necessitates using a mouse for some operations. But I imagine that will be remedied over time.
- visarga 12y agoI tried Inbox in Chrome on OS X Yosemite on rMBP 13'' last year's model and it stutters and freezes when scrolling, and takes a minute to load all dependencies. I tried in Safari too, but it does not work with Safari yet, and in Chrome it's a disaster.
