Componentize the web, with Polycasts!
Today at Google, we’re excited to announce
the launch of
Polycasts,
a new video series to get developers up and running with
Polymer and Web Components.
Web Components usher in a new era of web development, allowing developers to create
encapsulated, interoperable elements that extend HTML itself. Built atop these new standards,
Polymer makes it easier and faster to build Web Components, while also adding polyfill support
so they work across all modern browsers.
Because Polymer and Web Components are such big changes for the platform, there’s a lot to
learn, and it can be easy to get lost in the complexity. For that reason, we created
Polycasts.
Polycasts are designed to be bite sized, and to teach one concept at a time. Along the way we
plan to highlight best practices for not only working with Polymer, but also using the
DevTools to make sure your code is performant.
We’ll be releasing new videos often over the coming weeks, initially focusing on core elements
and layout. These episodes will also be embedded throughout the
Polymer site, helping to augment the existing
documentation. Because there’s so much to cover in the Polymer universe, we want to hear from
you! What would you like to see? Feel free to shoot a tweet to
@rob_dodson, if you have an idea for a show,
and be sure to subscribe to our
YouTube channel so you’re
notified when new episodes are released.
