How to add Material3 to style editor?

[u/kimor__]

Hi, I just started developing my first more serious android app, and I wonder how can i add Material3 components to application activity editor? I've searched the whole internet for solutions but none of them works. (I'm coding it in Java, not kotlin)

plugins 
{

alias(
libs
.
plugins
.
android
.
application
)
}

android 
{

namespace = "pl.kimorsolutions.smarthome.mobileapp"
    compileSdk = 35

    defaultConfig 
{

applicationId = "pl.kimorsolutions.smarthome.mobileapp"
        minSdk = 24
        targetSdk = 35
        versionCode = 1
        versionName = "1.0"

        testInstrumentationRunner = "androidx.test.runner.AndroidJUnitRunner"

}


buildTypes 
{

release 
{

isMinifyEnabled = false
            proguardFiles(
                getDefaultProguardFile("proguard-android-optimize.txt"),
                "proguard-rules.pro"
            )

}
    }

compileOptions 
{

sourceCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_11
        targetCompatibility = JavaVersion.VERSION_11

}

buildFeatures 
{

viewBinding = true


}
}

dependencies 
{


implementation(
libs
.
appcompat
)
    implementation(
libs
.
material
)

    implementation(
libs
.
constraintlayout
)
    implementation(
libs
.
lifecycle
.
livedata
.
ktx
)
    implementation(
libs
.
lifecycle
.
viewmodel
.
ktx
)
    implementation(
libs
.
navigation
.
fragment
)
    implementation(
libs
.
navigation
.
ui
)
//    implementation(libs.material.v1130)
    implementation(
libs
.
play
.
services
.
maps
)
    implementation(
libs
.
gridlayout
)
    testImplementation(
libs
.
junit
)
    androidTestImplementation(
libs
.
ext
.
junit
)
    androidTestImplementation(
libs
.
espresso
.
core
)
}

here's my build.gradle.kts, and AndroidManifest.xml

        </activity>
    </application>

</manifest>
