I wanted to get started trying out the Polymer App Toolbox, so I was 
following the steps from 
here: https://www.polymer-project.org/1.0/start/toolbox/set-up

However, when I got to running `polymer serve --open`, it just opened a 
blank page. After trying a few things, it turned out that I needed to 
install Bower (`sudo npm install -g bower`) before `polymer init 
app-drawer-template` would work properly. Perhaps this should be mentioned 
somewhere in the setup instructions at that URL, or even better, included 
in an installation script? (Possibly as part of the installation 
of polymer-cli.)

Side note: when I ran `polymer init app-drawer-template`, there was a 
message that said it was running `bower install` for me, and if it failed, 
I should try running the command myself. It then exited with no further 
messages, which in Linux normally means no error...but apparently not this 
time! That message did eventually get me on the right track, though, so I'm 
glad you had it there.
