WebP is the modern image format developed by Google that offers both lossless and lossy compression images for the web. WebP lossless images are 26% smaller in size compared to PNGs. WebP lossy images are 25-34% smaller than comparable JPEG images. WebP image format is natively supported in Google Chrome, Firefox, Edge, the Opera browser.

WebP is a relatively new image format with good compression and image quality but is not yet supported by all web browsers and image viewers. If you have a picture in WebP format and you want to convert it to a more common JPG format, this tool is one of the simplest ways to do it.
You can use Paint.net free software to open and save WebP image files. Paint.NET is a free image and photo editing software for PCs that run Windows. It supports layers, unlimited undo, special effects, and other powerful image editing features. I think browser-based extensions are good as the WebP files are used mostly for the Web.
The WebP image format helps to create smaller, better-looking images that can make the web faster. WebP images offer lossy and lossless compression that can be used on photographic, translucent, and graphical images for the web. The WebP file consists of VP8 or VP8L image data, and a container based on RIFF. WebP typically achieves an average of 30% more compression than JPEG, without loss of image quality.
