Google AMP - Social Widgets
Amp provides support to show social widgets on the page without having to load any external library. In this chapter, we are going to discuss some popular social widgets listed here −
Google AMP − Facebook
Google AMP − Twitter
Google AMP − Pinterest
Google Amp - Facebook
Using amp-facebook component, we can connect to facebook and display post, video, comment in a amp page.
To make use of amp-facebook, we need to add the following script to the page −
<script async custom-element = "amp-facebook"
src = "https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-facebook-0.1.js">
</script>
Amp-facebook tag format
<amp-facebook
width = "552"
height = "310"
layout = "responsive"
data-href = "https://www.facebook.com/howcodexindia/
posts/1784197988358159">
</amp-facebook>
A working example for amp-facebook is shown here −

</body>
</html>

data-embed-as− The options available are post, video and comment. By default, it is post.
data-locale (mandatory) − It shows the display in locale language, you can change it as per your choice.
data-include-comment-parent− It takes values true or false. It is false by default. When you use data-embed-as option as comment, incase you need the parent reply to the comment, you can set this option as true.
So far we have seen how to add post/video and comment to the amp page. Incase we need to add the facebook page, amp has a component called amp-facebook-page.
