Material Design for Kivy framework. Extensions: @kivymd-extensions

KivyMD Team
We are a team of three from Russia, Ukraine and Uruguay. We are working on an open source project (https://github.com/kivymd/KivyMD) that through the Kivy framework (https://github.com/kivy/kivy), aims to provide tools for creating desktop and mobile applications in Python in the style Material Design by Google (https://material.io/design).
Our goals
We all love Python and the Kivy framework and want to build our applications using these tools. However, we must keep up with the times and support current trends in the world of application development. Material Design by Google is one of these trends. And we are working to ensure that developers using Kivy in their applications have access to all the modern tools that are available, for example, in React Native and Flutter.
In plan
To date, the KivyMD library provides widgets in the style of Material Design, which is typical only for applications on Android platform. There are no graphical widgets for the iOS platform. The plans adding to the KivyMD library the feature, depending on the platform (without changing the target code), to display the corresponding graphical widgets for each of the two platforms (Android/iOS). In addition, not all Material Design features are implemented in the library.
Why funding
Despite the fact that the Kivy community showed great interest in the KivyMD library, we were not able to attract a sufficient number of participants for the development of the project. Currently, only two person is an active developer of the KivyMD library. Due to the fact that the number of KivyMD users is increasing by 1000 people every week, we cannot devote enough time to development, fixing project errors and user support, because we do not have people who could work with us to improve the library.
The time allotted for the development of the KivyMD project is 14 hours a week. This is not enough for the development of the library, but we cannot allocate more time, since we are working on other projects to earn a living.
Therefore, we ask the community to help finance the KivyMD project so that we can hire additional programmers to develop the library and further transfer the core developers of the project to a full time.
KivyMD is a collection of Material Design compliant widgets for use with Kivy, a framework for cross-platform, touch-enabled graphical applications. https://youtube.com/c/KivyMD https://twitter.com…
