Google Web Stories is a free open-source system that converts content into bite-sized, easy-to-digest formats for mobile devices.
If you’re wondering what this looks like, think Instagram, Facebook, and most recently LinkedIn. Stories were originally made famous by Instagram and were later adopted by other social media platforms.
Google Web Stories essentially provides a similar format to those social stories features — a mix of images, video, text, and animations to create a more immersive storytelling experience without requiring too much effort from the end-user.
