Hello developers
This is Pratham Jangra, a Computer Science & Engineering undergrad
sophomore.
For GSoC 2021, I am making a proposal to solve some problems in the
django-amp-tools project. The most important one is to create a library for
auto-parsing HTML tags.
Importance: As we all know AMP is used by a massive amount of websites for
webpages to load faster and get pages optimized for mobile browsing.
Nowadays AMP is heavily used for user-first websites, stories, ads, emails.
It is widely used for SEO in websites as Google prefers it and gives the
website a higher ranking.
Problems/Ideas: AMP uses equivalent HTML tags to optimize a particular
webpage. But there are still some issues yet to be resolved as follows:
-
AMP is based on components
-
Not all tags have equivalent representation in HTML which is a big
issue because day by day content is increasing on AMP pages and we will
eventually need those tags to render the pages. This is the problem I
have
faced personally while using AMP boilerplate for a website. There is no
amplify tag equivalent.
-
Translation is still a big issue for AMP. Currently all HTML cannot
be translated.
-
Automatic parsing: If there is a way to automatically parse all tags
of HTML then most of the issues of equivalent representation in AMP will
be
solved. for e.g. <img>. All we would need to do is create a library to
automatically create an AMP-equivalent page of the existing HTML page.
-
Need for stabilize the parsing.
I did my research as much as possible but still some issues are there and
we can create a new library for auto-parsing the tags in normal HTML. My
proposal is still in work and I would really appreciate feedback and
suggestions on these issues. Please advise me to implement any other
features and if there is anything wrong in the whole idea. I am open to any
new ideas; and please correct me if I have missed anything in the whole
idea. Thank you.
Regards
Pratham Jangra
