That's quite funny sentiment: basically you are saying the only reason for some people to use Linux if they are forced to use it by some library. An operating system shouldn't rely on that, if it wants to be truly general purpose.

My tip is not to use custom styling for buttons/text/etc just use the default Material design. It is already pretty nice, certainly better than what a non-designer can come up with. If you are interested in details, check out the design guidelines at https://material.io/, they cover a lot of stuffs from colors to padding sizes.
