Amp-story is a amp-component used to display content keeping the user engaged with the story. For example using a series of images telling about a brand.
To get working with amp-story, we need to include the script as shown below −
<script async custom-element = "amp-story" src = "https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-story-1.0.js"> </script>
In this chapter, let us understand what amp-story is and how it works. Assume that we have a image gallery and want to display the same on the page. In the amp page we can make it look beautiful and interactive to the user using amp-story component.
The format of amp-story tag looks like as shown below −
<amp-story standalone> ---> Main story Tag
<amp-story-page id = "page-1"> ---> Pages inside the story e.g page1
<amp-story-grid-layer template = "fill"> -->
Layers for the page1.You can have more than one layer.
//Add html elements here or amp components
</amp-story-grid-layer>
<amp-story-grid-layer template = "fill"> -->
Layers for the page1.You can have more than one layer.
//Add html elements here or amp components
</amp-story-grid-layer>
...
</amp-story-page>
<amp-story-page id = "page-2"> ---> Pages inside the story e.g page2
<amp-story-grid-layer template = "fill"> -->
Layers for the page2.You can have more than one layer.
//Add html elements here or amp components
</amp-story-grid-layer>
...
</amp-story-page>
...
</amp-story>
There are some additional attributes added for amp-story as follows −
<amp-story standalone title = "My Story" publisher = "The AMP Team" publisher-logo-src = "publisherlogo image here" poster-portrait-src = "poster portrait here" poster-square-src = "poster square image here" poster-landscape-src = "poster landscape image here">
This feature makes the story telling using amp very interactive.
The following code shows a working example for amp-story. The output for the same is shown for desktop as well as mobile mode.
