I need to use the latest version of Angular material i.e version 7.x. But my current Angular version is 5.x. is it possible to update Angular material alone?

  • I strongly doubt that Angular Material 7.x will work on Angular 5.x, but you can try it by updating the material and cdk packages. – G. Tranter Feb 05 '19 at 22:15
  • Material has peer dependency on angular core, common and some other angular packages. Therefore you wont be able to update to material 7.x without updating Angular 5.x – Murgin Boo Feb 18 '19 at 21:56
  • yes Murgin you are correct – Joshua Feb 20 '19 at 08:47

You can run the following command that updates Angular Material/CDK to the latest version:

ng update @angular/material

See the Angular Update Guide for more info.

Finally after analysis, I understood we can't update angular material to version 7.x in Angular 5 project. Angular project need to be updated to 7 to have angular material 7.x
