AVIF to WebP

This lesson is part of Web Developer Tools · All levels

Summary

WebP is a web format that supports lossless and lossless compression, transparency, and animation. Converting AVIF to WebP is often chosen when the browser or destination application is more convenient with WebP, although AVIF efficiency is usually slightly better. Pay attention to the quality settings and provide fallback for the old device. Test the results in several browsers before using them in production.

Key points

WebP and AVIF both support alpha and animation on the right tool
AVIFs are generally more efficient, but WebP is more mature in many web workflows
Conversion is decoding and then re-encoding so there's a new generation of compression.
Provide JPG fallback for browsers or applications that do not support WebP
Use high quality or lossless for graphics with lines and text
