  Yeah I used Polymer on a production site a year ago. The amount of Google components I had to fork and edit to make them work correctly in all the browsers I had to support was maddening. I think many of the issues I ran into have been addressed but it just soured me on the whole thing (especially since I was never able to get vulcanize to work properly on our mildly complex projext; it had major issues). Site looks great regardless. That's one of the great things about Polymer.

    I might recommend you check out React Standalone if you're interested in Web Components but want to use something familiar (if you're familiar with React that is!). I'm using it right now so I can build an SDK that works both "natively" in a React environment and in vanilla JS + Angular, etc.

      That looks pretty interesting. I've done web components manually which were a little awkward but for someone using React this looks compelling. I haven't dived into it much but I'll look into it when I do. Thanks!

  Agreed. Also, for being around for more than a year, Polymer is still way behind Android native material components that they claim to emulate. For example, why can't I swipe between the tabs on this website just like an Android ViewPager?
