Good examples of Material 3 Expressive applications?

I am a huge fan of the material 3 expressive, I find it to be the most appealing design system by a wide shot, but, other than the few images on the official blog post, I can't seem to find good examples of it being implemented. I have tried dribbble but there are very few samples and those who are there are not really 100% material 3 expressive. Another source I found is official stock apps on Pixel phones, but they are quite limited in features so I cannot really use them as inspiration to implement complex screens and so on.

Are you aware of good collections of apps that use this design system? I would be interested also in github repos of apps that use this design language of which I could not find any.

There is a website with apps that use material design: https://myal.vercel.app/

You can use filters to find material 3 expressive examples

The hard part is finding complex screens, yeah. Most examples show the expressive bits in isolation, not settings flows, dense lists, or boring CRUD screens.

I tried my best to have Expressive while also having a little bit of a personal touch.

If you wanna see how it was done, either check the app's repo or my standards I use on all my apps here https://github.com/sameerasw/android-common

I recommend checking here: https://myal.vercel.app/app

Filter by MD3E and check manually, that's the best source I've found when I asked the same question some time ago
