Did you find a way to solve this?
You can do something like this:
class MyElement {
age = 25;
name = "Daniel";
color = "red";
owner = "Eric";
//setFocus() {
// this.$.nameInput.focus();
//}
}
Polymer(new MyElement());
That works, but the problem is you cant access the $ or any other special
polymer properties. Any clues?
