Anyone using Google Stories?

Has anyone started using google stories? I'm about to add it to my blog, but, not sure if there's any tool to make the process easier on the code side of things

    Heard about Google stories few days back and planned to integrate with my profile https://www.tham.xyz/

      What tool are you using to build your blog?

        I built this using nuxt framework and still some final clean up is pending. My entire blog + portfolio website is hosted on Github pages with zero cost.

          Great! Mine is built with gatsby, in the future maybe I'll switch to next bc gatsby it's not flexible enough

            Thanks for your feedback. I used tailwindcss for styling which provided me lots of style flexibility.

    I have heard about it, but aren't using them at this point in time.

    Since there's a lot of people who don't know what it's about, I'll leave a link to google's info page: https://stories.google/

    Learned about it through a post made by @zerotousers

    I'm working on react package ( https://www.npmjs.com/package/react-google-stories ) to use it in my blog https://ironpal.co

    Next has an example of integrating stories with their framework. Played around with today it and it was straightforward to set up at least.

    I’ve seen at least one media company try them out, but I’m still a little unsure how useful having web stories is instead just having a link pointing to Instagram etc.

      I think what's best is having both, they target different sources of traffic
