Components for nearly any app, out of the box

Get started quickly with the complete set of the same paper and iron elements used by Google products.

Complete build chain

Build your app using a suite of gulp tasks that leverage the full range of Polymer-related tools, such as vulcanize, crisper, and more.

Testing made easy

Test your app and all of its components using the built-in and pre-configured Web Component Tester.

Flexible app theming

Easily theme your entire application, including the built-in elements, using app-level Custom CSS Properties.

Framework-free, or framework-compatible

Build your app out of elements, or wire in an external framework to handle business logic. It's up to you!

Responsive app layout boilerplate

Start off mobile-friendly with the included layout boilerplate.

Live Browser Reloading

Reload the browser in real-time anytime an edit is made, without the need for an extension.

Material design ready

Use the built-in paper elements to create a full material design-style app.

Built for elements

Easily add in additional elements, either by building them yourself or installing them with bower. Browse the catalog of elements built by the Polymer team for inspiration.

Tooled for production

Polymer starter kit links up all of the powerful Polymer-centric tooling out of the box to easily minify and vulcanize your app.
