Are Polymer and X-tag frontend frameworks compatible with a Content Management System ?

I would like to use a Java EE portlet based portal builder as uPortal or Liferay to deploy a web portal. Moreover, I have seen some new Frontend Frameworks (Polymer/X-tag) which seem to be really powerful and full of promises.

So I wanted to know if I will be able to deploy those frameworks to customize my portal ? Or if it is not compatible yet ?

Thanks in advance.

  • Web Components as a technology are completely agnostic to your server-side solution. So it will work the same as anything else that you would do in java land. I did a CMS with python backend and polymer components just fine.

    Polymer does NOT support Server-Side rendering - but you would have to use nodejs for this to work in the first place.
