So I had a feature request to add webp image support to Tectonicus to cut down on the file size of the output. I’ve been aware of webp for a while, but not really paid much attention to it - mostly because it seems to only be supported in Chrome and Opera right now.
Has anyone any experience with webp (both as a user and an app developer)? I found this imageio plugin which says it added webp support to ImageIO, so I’m going to give that a try. There’s also mention of a javascript hack to add support to other browsers, but I’ve not tried it.
Thoughts?
