Material 3 Theme behind paywall?

Was very excited to use Radzen components with my new site, and Material 3 looks great with it!

So imagine my disappointment when the theme is behind a $799 paywall.. like a slap across the face.

I see the need to monetize, but maybe don’t put the only viable (professional looking) theme behind the paywall. Focus on support etc instead.

This was very disheartening and I hope that the premium themes will be made free so that it won’t keep people (like myself) from using the component library. I’m not about to built a system with themes that look like they are stuck in the 80s.

Does anyone know if these themes are planned to be offered for free?

We don't plan to make the premium themes free. If you want to use the Material 3 theme in your application you need to purchase a subscription. Alternatively you should either use a free theme or move on to a different component library.
