Use it now, the polyfills are really good for older browsers.

They are?

Polymer has a tendency to get confused by its own loading process and go into infinite loops. Are there any other shadow DOM polyfills out there?

(And last I checked, Polymer was polyfilling the old proposal, not the one that is currently being implemented in browsers.)

I yet ever heard of infinite loops in loading. Do you have an open issue?

The webcomponentsjs package has polyfilled the v1 Web Components specs for over a year. Polymer 2.x was the version that used the new specs instead of the older v0 specs.

https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1256031 has an example of a page using polymer that runs into this problem.

Did anyone file an issue on the polyfills? We're not going to be aware of issues on Firefox's bug tracker...

Also, that's an old version of the polyfills, before Polymer 2.0, it might have been fixed on our end quite a while ago.

Hmm good to know I’ll definitely look into it!
