Polymer installation on windows

Has anyone installed Polymer on windows? I am new to using GIT and it says you need Bower and Node and some other things to get it to work.

Step 1:- install node.js

Step 2:- install Git set the Git location Path (system's environmental variable) 

       like:-- D:\Program Files\Git\cmd

Step 3:- install bower using npm install -g bower command check the location of npm global binaries by using command (npm config get prefix).

copy the Path and set the bower location Path (system's environmental variable) 

        like--> C:\Users\USER_PROFILE\AppData\Roaming\npm

the whole Path will look like..(node to Polymer)

         D:\Program Files\nodejs\;D:\Program Files\Git\cmd;C:\Users\USER_PROFILE\AppData\Roaming\npm

Step 4:- using command prompt go to project folder or create a project then type bower install polymer inside project folder.

We are working on a simple ZIP file for people to download and get started, but we haven't finished that yet.

Until we get that ZIP done, you will want to get started by installing Bower. Bower helps you manage component installations. You can worry about GIT later.

Install Bower:

  1. Install nodejs

  2. execute this command:

    npm install -g bower

Make a project, acquire some Polymer elements:

  1. make a project folder

  2. inside project folder, execute this command:

    bower install Polymer/polymer-ui-elements

That will produce a number of components in your project folder to help you get started. Please refer to http://polymer-project.org for more information.
