Thanks for the encouragement, I should have tried this earlier but it seemed unwieldy without any knowledge of QT.
After installing qml-extras[1] and qml-material[2], the demo[3] of material runs (mostly*) fine with the qmlscene[4] tool.
I want to see if it works on OSX next and if it does, see if I can whip up a more complex test like a small HN viewer.
mostly* means that everything works except the Progress Bar, but that could also be an issue on the qml-matierial side.

ps: I installed the hole qt5 group on archlinux, just to be save.
Kind regards,
Henry
