What is it?
WebP - это современный формат изображений, разработанный Google в 2010 году, специально предназначенный для веба. Он использует современные техники сжатия, основанные на видеокодеке VP8, чтобы достичь значительно меньших размеров файлов, чем JPG и PNG, без видимой потери качества.
WebP поддерживает как сжатие с потерями, так и без потерь, а также прозрачность (альфа-канал) и анимацию - что делает его универсальной заменой для JPG, PNG и GIF в веб-контексте.

How to open a WebP file
WebP is a modern image format that provides superior compression for images on the web. Software for working with WebP can be categorized into professional tools, free or open-source applications, web browsers, and built-in operating system utilities. Professional tools cater to users needing advanced editing capabilities, while free/open-source options are suitable for casual users or developers. Browsers and built-in utilities offer quick viewing and basic manipulation without the need for additional installations.
When choosing software for WebP, important factors include feature fidelity, whether the focus is on editing or viewing, cost models, and platform compatibility.
