'angular material checkbox and radio button not working properly
I am using angular material from https://material.angular.io .
I followed the steps in getting started and added all dependencies. Everything works fine except checkboxes and buttons.
When I use the syntax mentioned here https://material.angular.io/components/component/checkbox for checkboxes I am getting two checkboxes as shown below
Also I am not getting any ripple styles. Same thing with radio buttons. Can someone help me how to solve this?
Below is my code for app.module.ts
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
import { HttpModule } from '@angular/http';
import {BrowserAnimationsModule} from '@angular/platform-browser/animations';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import {MdButtonModule, MdCheckboxModule} from '@angular/material';
import { SampleComponent } from './sample/sample.component';
import 'hammerjs';
@NgModule({
declarations: [
AppComponent,
SampleComponent
],
imports: [
BrowserModule,
FormsModule,
HttpModule,
BrowserAnimationsModule,MdButtonModule, MdCheckboxModule
],
providers: [],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }

May have come 8 months late but your import 'hammerjs'; is written in the wrong folder, it should be placed in main.ts file. You can try this guide, there's a video to watch as well https://coursetro.com/posts/code/113/How-to-Build-an-Angular-5-Material-App

I had an issue with my Angular material radio button not working. I found that it was a CSS issue where the inner elements within the radio button weren't filling correctly even though they operated fine.
styles.scss:
.mat-radio-inner-circle {
height: 20px;
width: 20px;
background-color: navy;
}
It is important to ensure all elements you want visible
- Have a height, width, and background-color
- Aren't hidden
