One important question: Do you need to ship something right now?

If so, its important to keep in mind that Polymer is in a "developer preview" state, and we have not declared it production ready yet.

If you need to ship, then use whatever you feel the most comfortable with. Fewer cognitive barriers and less stress.

However, if you've got the time to play around and learn how web components work, then hop aboard!

There's an introduction tutorial here: http://www.polymer-project.org/docs/start/tutorial/intro.htm...

The calculator demo is pretty simple: http://www.polymer-project.org/components/paper-calculator/d... (source: https://github.com/polymer/paper-calculator)

Salesforce has a nice polymer-based web component set for building mobile apps that integrate with the Salesforce apis: https://github.com/ForceDotComLabs/mobile-ui-elements/

And the demo app at I/O is here: http://www.polymer-project.org/apps/topeka/ (source: https://github.com/polymer/topeka/ and https://github.com/polymer/topeka-elements)



That's consistent with what we've been hearing from Matt, but I believe contrary to how Rob answered a similar question at I/O.

Do you guys have a timeline for this, e.g. "try it for production-quality apps that are scheduled to ship Fall 2014"?
