I'm trying to get an Angular Material instance working with the latest (13.x) version, using CodeSandbox (and by extension the CLI). I am receiving the dreaded, "Could not find angular material Core Theme" error. Note that I have tried importing via the usual routes

angular-cli.json: "styles": ["./node_modules/@angular/material/prebuilt-themes/indigo-pink.css"],

styles.css:

@import "./node_modules/@angular/material/prebuilt-themes/deeppurple-amber.css";
@import "~@angular/material/prebuilt-themes/deeppurple-amber.css";

Note that the first approach doesn't "fail", but doesn't help at all with theming. The second approach yields a different error:

postcss-import: /src/@angular/material/prebuilt-themes/indigo-pink.css:1:1: Unknown word

Sample project is at https://codesandbox.io/s/idle-test-r3rqp3. Any tips or pointers are appreciated.

The config file should be called angular.json in angular 13. Here's a stackblitz with angular 13 and material set up: https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-ivy-w8wwx5?file=angular.json

and here's the config file:
