Make Polymer components editable #3946

Open renfeng opened 9 years ago

renfeng commented 9 years ago

Is there a particular consideration to have all files under Polymer components directory readonly? It almost rendered CDE useless when creating a new website based on a copy of Topeka - the only way to change an existing component is to move it in and out of the components directory.

You should not edit components which are synchronising with GitHub by Bower because this code could be updated sometimes from Git. If you need to change behavior of a component you could inherit from the parent component and make all your customizations in a successor component.

I'll try as you suggested. Thanks!

That implies my successor component and all my custom components must not go into the components directory, doesn't it?
