Materialize vs Flat Remix CSS

Since Materialize follows Google's guidelines for Material design, which in theory is device agnostic, Materialize itself is device agnostic too. It's designed to look good on every device.

CSS components: Badges, buttons, cards, collections, footer, forms, icons, navbar, pagination, preloader.

JavaScript components: Collapsible, Dialogs, Dropdown, Media, Modals, Parallax, Pushpin, ScrollFire, Scrollspy, SideNav, Tabs, Transitions, Waves.

Mobile-specific: slide-out drawer menu, toasts.
