What is Polymer?

The Polymer library provides a comprehensive suite of tools for crafting custom elements, making it easier to ensure they function like typical DOM elements. Similar to standard DOM elements, Polymer components can be instantiated via constructors or document creation methods, and they can be customized through attributes or properties. Each element instance can have its own internal DOM, adapt to property and attribute changes, and be styled using both internal defaults and external styles, all while reacting to methods that modify their internal state. When you register a custom element, you associate a class with a designated custom element name, and the element features lifecycle callbacks to proficiently handle its various phases. Furthermore, Polymer supports property declarations, allowing for the harmonious integration of your element's property API with the Polymer data system. The use of Shadow DOM provides your element with a locally scoped and encapsulated DOM tree, and Polymer can automatically construct and populate a shadow tree for your element based on a DOM template, thereby improving the modularity and reusability of your code. This combination of capabilities not only makes it easier to develop custom elements but also guarantees their seamless integration into the broader web components ecosystem. Consequently, developers benefit from enhanced flexibility and maintainability in their web applications, leading to more efficient workflows and improved user experiences.
