## Installation & Setup
### #1 Install DatePicker and Material packages with npm
```bash
npm install angular-material-datepicker
npm install @angular/material
```

### #2 Import DatePicker and Material modules  
```typescript
import { MaterialModule } from '@angular/material';
import { DatePickerModule } from 'angular-material-datepicker';
...
@NgModule({
    imports: [
        MaterialModule.forRoot(),
        DatePickerModule,
        ...
    ],
    ...
})
export class YourModule { }
```

### #3 Apply Material Theme to Datepicker
Import themes and apply them to the Calendar in your `style.scss`.
```scss
// Import a pre-built theme
@import '~@angular/material/core/theming/prebuilt/deeppurple-amber';
// Import your custom input theme file so you can call the custom-input-theme function
@import '~angular-material-datepicker/src/datepicker/calendar.component.scss';

// Using the $theme variable from the pre-built theme you can call the theming function
@include calendar-theme($theme);

```

## Usage
### #1 Add the `<md-datepicker></md-datepicker>` element in your html template.
```html
<md-datepicker></md-datepicker>
```
