☔️✨ A Polymer element that makes it rain emoji
A Polymer 1.x web component that animates emoji falling down the page. It was a fun demo/novelty project from 2015, not a serious utility. The target audience is basically nobody in 2026.
Lazy-loads twemoji only when requested, so you don't pay the weight cost by default. The API is clean for what it is — a single custom element with an `active` attribute and `start()`/`stop()` methods. Drop count is configurable.
Polymer 1.x and Bower are both dead, making this effectively unusable without a complete rewrite. Last touched in 2018. No npm package, no ES modules, no path forward to modern web components. The implementation is a single monolithic HTML file — the old Polymer pattern that nobody uses anymore.
