Thinner Syntax

Pure ES5

Omit <dom-module> and Polymer()

    <template id="es5-element1">
      <span>{{label}}</span>
    </template>
    <script>
    Prototype = {
      is: 'es5-element1',
      properties: {
        label: {
          type: String,
          value: 'label'
        }
      },
      attached: function () {
        this.label = this.label.toUpperCase();
      }
    }
    </script>

Partial ES6

ES6 template string for template property and ES6 shorthand method.

    <script>
    Prototype = {
      is: 'es5-element2',
      template: `
        <span>{{label}}</span>
      `,
      properties: {
        label: {
          type: String,
          value: 'label'
        }
      },
      attached () {
        this.label = this.label.toUpperCase();
      }
    }
    </script>

ES6 class with beforeRegister

ES6 class with beforeRegister() callback.

    <template id="es6-element1">
      <span>{{label}}</span>
    </template>
    <script>
    Prototype = class Es6Element1 {
      beforeRegister () {
        this.is = 'es6-element1';
        this.properties = {
          label: {
            type: String,
            value: 'label'
          }
        };
      }
      attached () {
        this.label = this.label.toUpperCase();
      }
    }
    </script>

ES6 class with constructor

ES6 class with initialization at constructor. Automatic un-camel-casing from class name.

    <script>
    'use strict';

    Prototype = class Es6Element2 {
      constructor () {
        this.template = `
          <span>{{label}}</span>
        `;
        this.properties = {
          label: {
            type: String,
            value: 'label'
          }
        };
      }
      attached () {
        this.label = this.label.toUpperCase();
      }
    }
    </script>

ES7 class property

ES7 class properties for initialization.

    <script>
    // Babel tranpilation required
    Prototype = class Es7Element2 {
      template = `
        <span>{{label}}</span>
      `;
      properties = {
        label: {
          type: String,
          value: 'label'
        }
      };
      attached () {
        this.label = this.label.toUpperCase();
      }
    }
    </script>

Equivalent ES5 Polymer syntax

    <dom-module id="es5-element">
      <template>
        <span>{{label}}</span>
      </template>
      <script>
      Polymer({
        is: 'es5-element',
        properties: {
          label: {
            type: String,
            value: 'label'
          }
        },
        attached: function () {
          this.label = this.label.toUpperCase();
        }
      });
      </script>
    </dom-module>
