I am trying to use the angular material sidenav in my project but when I add it to the project it causes the entire page to be blank (white) and when I inspect the DOM nothing inside of mat-sidenav-container is rendered. I'm sure whatever I'm doing or not doing is very simple. I have used other angular materials in my project successfully already (namely the toolbar).

You need to import BrowserAnimationsModule
in your app module and it will render as expected.
import { BrowserAnimationsModule } from '@angular/platform-browser/animations';
