I'm working in a corporate environment which is making it extremely difficult to try and get SCSS working on our build server. Is there a way to apply custom Angular Material 2 theme using custom color palettes as plain CSS instead?
Material comes with a couple pre-built themes available as plain .css files, as documented here.
If you have an existing custom theme in .scss, you can convert it to .css using the command
$ node_modules\.bin\node-sass.cmd src\theme.scss > theme.css
