I can't believe it's AMP



AMP has evolved quite a bit since being introduced as a way to create simple static web pages that render almost instantly. Today, it's possible to create complex, interactive websites only using AMPHTML. This talk provides an overview of the AMP ecosystem and demonstrates what's possible if you fully exploit the functionality of AMP components.
