Fat-Free vs Material Design for Angular: What are the differences?
Developers describe Fat-Free as "PHP micro-framework designed to help you build dynamic and robust Web applications - fast". Fat-Free Framework makes it easy to build entire Web sites in a jiffy. With the same power and brevity as modern Javascript toolkits and libraries, F3 helps you write better-looking and more reliable PHP programs. On the other hand, Material Design for Angular is detailed as "Material Design for AngularJS Apps". Material Design is a specification for a unified system of visual, motion, and interaction design that adapts across different devices. Our goal is to deliver a lean, lightweight set of AngularJS-native UI elements that implement the material design system for use in Angular SPAs.
Fat-Free can be classified as a tool in the "Frameworks (Full Stack)" category, while Material Design for Angular is grouped under "Front-End Frameworks".
"Open source" is the top reason why over 5 developers like Fat-Free, while over 104 developers mention "Ui components" as the leading cause for choosing Material Design for Angular.
