How do I Use polymer elements?
Documentation for polymer elements is contained on the element catalog. We include the Paper and Iron collections.
Additional Components
Additional components should be installed with bower and symlinked to your app's static/ directory (see the materialdjango source for an example). Alternatively you may download them as a zip from the catalog and place them in your app's static/ directory.
