Facebook announced Wednesday that its Instant Articles feature will be made available to all publishers April 12 at its F8 global developers conference.

Instant Articles were designed to enable publishers to deliver content with interactive elements that loads up to 10 times faster than standard mobile Web posts.

The social network introduced Instant Articles last May with nine launch partners: The Atlantic, BBC News, Bild, BuzzFeed, The Guardian, National Geographic, NBC, The New York Times and Spiegel.

More than 20 partners were added last September, and Instant Articles was rolled out to all iPhone users the following month.
