Instant Apps is a bridge between seamless web experience not requiring installation and truly native user experience with material design and navigation. It absorbs the benefits of both worlds. As Google's early access partner, Jet.com got access to Instant Apps API and tools in their early experimental stage. I was leading Instant Apps project for the last 8 months at Jet.com and would love to share the experience. Building Instant Apps required a lot of work on the architecture side, modularization and reducing the app size. In my talk I will touch the following points: - Instant Apps types - Architecture changes - Size and feature constraints - Pain points and lessons learned - Ways to slim down the app and bring it down to 4 MB - Benefits
