How it works
This converter uses the HTML5 Canvas API in your browser to re-encode PNG images into WebP.
When you select a PNG file, it is loaded into an in-memory image element. The image is drawn onto a canvas matching its exact pixel dimensions.
The canvas data is then exported using toBlob('image/webp', quality), where quality is defined by the slider. This encodes the image to WebP client-side, making the process fast and private.
Local Encoding. Your files are processed entirely in memory in your web browser. No network transfer occurs.
