• How to Build a Static WordPress Site With Frontity
  5 projects | dev.to | 28 Oct 2021

  Frontity uses WordPress REST API to fetch the data from your WordPress site (PHP server) and renders it in your React frontend (Node.js server). Frontity then renders the pages in HTML or AMP. Frontity can be hosted in a regular Node.js server or a serverless service like AWS, Netlify, or Vercel.

• Google deliberately throttled ad load times to promote AMP

  As an open source repository, you can actually look back in the history and verify the AMP Ad claims. E.g. https://github.com/ampproject/amphtml/pull/819

  AMP does not require any such thing. Anyone can implement the AMP cache, there are multiple existing AMP caches, and you can serve AMP without a cache, without in any way impairing the function of an AMP page.

  “The design of it was discussed in https://github.com/ampproject/amphtml/issues/3133. It wasn't done nefariously. AMP prioritizes the page content and verified elements first over non-AMP content (including non-AMP ads).”

• Resigning from the AMP Advisory Committee
  2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 18 Aug 2021

  I did some hacky analysis and roughly half of the PRs originated in GitHub and the majority of those are not google employees.

  Most changes have a github issue attached with discussion, all of the changes have descriptive commit messages regardless of who authored them and there is significant effort to document the decisions and decision process throughout.

  I can't speak for the release frequency for other organization's production that consumes this code. That includes many publishers, as well as other AMP caches such as Bing as well as webmail clients like Yahoo.

  The repo is for all of AMP, not just the validator. The caching related issues are handled by the "caching" working group (since caches are the consumer of the validator) and you can search for them with this query: https://github.com/ampproject/amphtml/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is...

  I won't try to address every part of this writing, but there is one claim that I feel is false: namely that the AMP validation rules are not open source.

  Here is the code: https://github.com/ampproject/amphtml/tree/main/validator

  All of the rules are written in human-readable config language. Here are the rules for common HTML elements (https://github.com/ampproject/amphtml/blob/main/validator/va...) and there are rules per-amp-tag (example: https://github.com/ampproject/amphtml/blob/main/extensions/a...)

  You can build it, run it locally, etc. There are open-source implementations that run in the browser, in a vscode plugin, on the command line via NPM, etc. Other entities can and do use the same code for their validation of AMP. Pull Requests are accepted from anyone and those changes land in Google production and all of the aforementioned tooling targets within a few days. There is documentation on how to contribute to and edit these files (https://github.com/ampproject/amphtml/blob/main/docs/compone...).

• AMP Pages are half dead, Time to focus on Core Web Vitals

  What if your Website or your Client Website is not on WordPress, and that was a self-made CMS or an E-commerce Store in these cases, we have to face the challenges with AMP Technology

• Google drops AMP label in mobile search results
  1 project | reddit.com/r/Android | 23 Jul 2021

  Go look at what AMP is and tell me what makes it so bad. It's just a tool developers can use to make mobile-friendly sites. This means ones that load quickly and use less data. This also entails not loading huge resources.

• Dislike Google AMP links? add noamp.link/ to the front of that URL and get sent to the non AMP URL

  No, it's 100% open source. Here's the active repository that has a thousand contributors.

• Introduction to AMP
  1 project | dev.to | 27 May 2021

  No external stylesheet should be included, hence, all the CSS has to be written within inside the tag of the page.

  No use of !important as AMP imposes its own element sizing rules.

  Get started with your first AMP page using this boilerplate code.

  AMP Validation

  Once done with creating your AMP pages, you can review them by using the AMP validator or Google’s Chrome Dev Tools.
