Overview

Web design shouldn’t be hindered by the need for a fast, smooth loading site. However, all too often web designers find themselves choosing between creative design choices and prioritizing speed. The AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages) Project has worked with agencies like MetaLab, North Kingdom, and Grain & Mortar to fix this by creating well-designed AMP pages that take full advantage of AMP’s interactive capabilities. Now anyone can access these AMP page templates from AMPstart.com, a library of components and pages all available to download and use across the web. Not only are these pages engaging, they take full advantage of AMP’s components – all ready to be used on your own site. Learn tips for designing a system, why you should use one, and see examples of how they built AMP Start.
