More on Material Design
In this chapter, we presented what amounts to a big grab bag of tools. Those tools are hardly any fun if you let them sit and gather dust. So keep an eye out for ways to spiff up your application with some depth or new animations.
One great place to look for inspiration is the material design specification itself, which is full of great ideas: http://www.google.com/design/spec/material-design/introduction.html. You can also look in Google Play to see what other apps are doing, and ask yourself: How would I do that in my own app? You might end up with a niftier program than what you initially imagined.
