Sometimes you want to add custom interactivity to your AMP pages to make your pages look more user-friendly and user calling. Although AMP’s pre-built components are limited, so amp-bind is made to overcome this problem. It helps the developer to add custom interactivity to the pages without using AMP’s pre-built components. You can use amp-bind to change the text dynamically on user interaction with the page.

Setup: To use amp-bind in your page you have to import its script in the header of the document.

HTML




<script async custom-element="amp-bind"
</script>


 

The amp-bind of Google AMP is comprised of three main concepts:

  1. State: State variables are responsible for the update on the page on the basis of user actions. It is very important to define a state variable.
  2. Expression: They are like JavaScript expressions used to refer to the state.
  3. Binding: They are a special attribute that is used to link an element’s property to a state via an expression.

To bind the text we will make use of attribute, it helps to change the text dynamically.

Example:

HTML




<!doctype html>
<html amp>
 
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Google AMP amp-bind</title>
 
    <link rel="canonical" href=
 
    <meta name="viewport" content=
"width=device-width,minimum-scale=1,initial-scale=1">
 
    <script async src=
    </script>
 
    <script async custom-element="amp-bind"
    </script>
 
    <style amp-boilerplate>
        body {
            -webkit-animation: -amp-start 8s
                steps(1, end) 0s 1 normal both;
 
            -moz-animation: -amp-start 8s
                steps(1, end) 0s 1 normal both;
 
            -ms-animation: -amp-start 8s
                steps(1, end) 0s 1 normal both;
 
            animation: -amp-start 8s
                steps(1, end) 0s 1 normal both;
        }
 
        @-webkit-keyframes -amp-start {
            from {
                visibility: hidden
            }
 
            to {
                visibility: visible
            }
        }
 
        @-moz-keyframes -amp-start {
            from {
                visibility: hidden
            }
 
            to {
                visibility: visible
            }
        }
 
        @-ms-keyframes -amp-start {
            from {
                visibility: hidden
            }
 
            to {
                visibility: visible
            }
        }
 
        @-o-keyframes -amp-start {
            from {
                visibility: hidden
            }
 
            to {
                visibility: visible
            }
        }
 
        @keyframes -amp-start {
            from {
                visibility: hidden
            }
 
            to {
                visibility: visible
            }
        }
    </style>
