Ampl transforms your Markdown into AMP-compliant html so it loads super-fast!

Why?

Google is putting their clout behind the AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages) Project to help speed up page load times on the Mobile Web: https://googleblog.blogspot.co.uk/2015/10/introducing-accelerated-mobile-pages.html

This module lets you convert Markdown (.md) files to AMP-compliant .html so that you can serve them up to mobile clients much faster.

What?

For many, reading on the mobile web is a slow, clunky and frustrating experience - but it doesn’t have to be that way. The Accelerated Mobile Pages (AMP) Project is an open source initiative that embodies the vision that publishers can create mobile optimized content once and have it load instantly everywhere.

How?

The best place to understand how AMP works is on the official "How it Works" page: https://www.ampproject.org/how-it-works/

Usage Example

install ampl from NPM

First install the module from npm:

npm install ampl --save
use ampl.parse in your code

Then in your ES5 code:

var ampl = require('ampl');
var markdownString = '# Hello World!'; // or read from a .md file
var cssStyle = 'h1 { color: green; }'; // or load your style.css file
ampl.parse(markdownString, {style: cssStyle}, function(ampHtml) {
  console.log(ampHtml);
});

Alternatively, if you are already using ES6 in your project, write:

import { parse } from 'ampl';
const markdownString = '# Hello World!'; // or read from a .md file
const cssStyle = 'h1 { color: green; }'; // or load your style.css file
parse(markdownString, cssStyle, function(ampHtml) {
  console.log(ampHtml);
});

This simple example is in example/simple.js To run this example, execute the following command in your terminal:

./node_modules/babel-cli/bin/babel-node.js example/simple.js

This will output the following AMP-Compliant html:

<html amp>
  <head >
    <meta charset='utf-8'></meta>
    <link rel='canonical' href='default.html'></link>
    <meta name='viewport' content='width=device-width,minimum-scale=1,initial-scale=1'></meta>
    <style amp-custom>
      h1 { color: green; }
    </style>
    <style >body {opacity: 0}</style><noscript ><style >body {opacity: 1}</style></noscript>
    <script async src='https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0.js'></script>
    <title >Index</title>
  </head>

    <div class="wrapper-main">
      <body >
    <h1 >Hello World!</h1>

  </body>
    </div>
</html>
