Deploying website created using Polymer starter kit?

For creating my college webpage using polymer, I have downloaded polymer starter kit 1.0.2. I have customized those html files to my desired text and it runs well when I do the below.

gulp serve

opening well is chrome through

http://localhost:3000/

The problem is, it doesn't show up when I drop files into my college server. The reason for creating a website so that it can be viewed under my name like www.college.edu/~rajesh. We have public_html folder wherein if we put html/css/js files and that is it will accessible public from above URL.

when I copied the contents of app folder along with bower_component folder the site doesn't come up whereas it work fine locally (using localhost). Only the title gets loaded however there is NO html body visible.

I am totally new to polymer. could this be done? if yes am I missing something.

Just a further clarification not sure if you ran this command, according to the readme file when you want to deploy your site you need to run

gulp

which will Build and optimize the current project, ready for deployment. This includes linting as well as vulcanization, image, script, stylesheet and HTML optimization and minification.

All the files needed will then be located in the 'dist' folder.

You have to run gulp serve:dist which will build/vulcanize your site. Then you need to copy app/dist folder
