Here are the getting started docs for polymer polymer-project.org/1.0/docs/start/getting-the-code.html. It's hard to say if it is better/worse than wordpress because they are two completely different things. Wordpress is a CMS, while polymer is more of a collection of/way of creating widgets you can use like html elements.
