17. Progressive Web AMPs

18. Max Prin @maxxeight | Engage Conference 2018 #EngagePDX18
Progressive Web AMPs
- AMP pages with PWA features
- AMP as entry point into your PWA
- AMP as data source for your PWA

AMP as entry point into your PWA
<amp-install-serviceworker>

20. Max Prin @maxxeight | Engage Conference 2018 #EngagePDX20
AMP as entry point into your PWA
1) User gets the AMP from the SERP
2) Service worker is installed on device
• Once activated, SW caches the
“app shell” and initial data
3) User clicks on a (internal) link
4) Pre-cached PWA loads instantly

AMP as entry point into your PWA
1) User gets the AMP from the SERP
2) Service worker is installed on device
• Once activated, SW caches the
“app shell” and initial data
3) User clicks on a (internal) link
4) SW hijacks the click
5) Pre-cached PWA loads instantly

The Service-Worker Hijacks The Click
if (request = navigate) {
if (requested page is cached) {serve cached
version}
else {fetch, serve and cache PWA version}
} else {
if (requested URL is cached) {serve cached
version}
else {fetch, serve and cache asset}
}

PWA + AMP = PWAMP
The AMP framework is
not compatible with
JavaScript frameworks
(e.g. pushState)

What about “SEO”?
AMP is not a ranking factor
A “really fast” site doesn’t rank better than a “fast site”

What about “SEO”?
AMP is not a ranking factor
A “really fast” site doesn’t rank better than a “fast site”
Faster is better (+ AMP cache/pre-loading)
AMP = mobile-friendly
