We'd like to see how the website appears and the effect on the user experience of using the Material UI framework (https://github.com/callemall/material-ui) instead of the current bootstrap-based "Lobes" theme.
For this task, the first step would be to download the framework, create a fork of the bookbrainz-site repository, and set up the framework within the repository folders. The styles.less file should be updated to remove Lobes and add any necessary references to Material UI, and the "gulp less" task run to update the site CSS. The site HTML should be modified so that the following key pages use Material UI:
- Home Page
- Entity Display Page
- Editor Page
Aim to get the pages as close as possible to the current layout, but with an updated Material Design appearance. Finally, produce a set of screenshots showcasing your work.
