Angular CDK has tools for developers to add common interaction patterns, while doing less coding and minimizing bugs
Builders of the Angular JavaScript framework have launched a component development kit for the platform, providing components with predetermined behaviors. The goal is for all Angular component libraries to take advantage of the kit and reduce duplication of efforts in solving common problems.

To use the kit, add @angular/sdk to your project with NPM or Yarn. The documentation on CDK behaviors is at the Angular Material website.
Features planned for later versions of Angular CDK include:
