Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP)

 

What is AMP?

AMP is a mobile-first technology that (like PWA) focuses on improving the user experience on mobile devices.

AMP is an extension of the HTML language. An AMP page is built of ready-made modifiable components that are optimized to load quickly on mobile devices. It allows developers to create interactive, user-friendly content, making it ideal for product landing pages as well as for supporting marketing campaigns.

AMP vs. PWA

An AMP page may have PWA functionalities or serve as a redirection point to a PWA (e.g. from a product landing page to e-commerce).

PWA

AMP

 A website with the feel and function of a mobile application.  Designed to display fast and mobile-friendly websites.
 Coded with JavaScript, but designed like a mobile app, with access to device functions like push notifications.  Omits nonessential CSS and JavaScript elements to speed website loading while ensuring a great user experience.
 Very popular in e-commerce and social media.  Recommended to all editors targeting ads at mobile recipients.
 A website with a user experience similar to a mobile app.  A faster-loading website with better customer experience.

AMP consists of three elements, each of which is completely compliant with current web standards:

AMP HTML is a light version of HTML. AMP structure has strict rules about which HTML markers it allows; some elements (like HTML forms) slow loading times, so these are not supported. AMP also uses a simplified version of CSS.

AMP JS – which limits the type of JavaScript scripts available – ensures fast loading on mobile devices. The only exception are scripts optimized for accelerated page loading.  At the cost of certain JavaScript reductions, AMP offers a library of easy-to-implement components that support animations, dynamically load page content, modify structure, and more. 

AMP CDN (commonly known as AMP Cache), a key element of the AMP platform, is a proxy-based content provision network (CDN). CDN downloads AMP contents and buffers it to quickly provide content. AMP CDN does a default buffer of all correct AMP contents and does not allow a quit option. However, you can use your own CDN provider on top of the AMP cache to customize your content provision configuration.
