This is a Server based on Golang, which allows you to serve WebP images on the fly. It will convert jpg,jpeg,png files by default, this can be customized by editing the config.json.

• currently supported image format: JPEG, PNG, BMP, GIF(static image for now)

e.g When you visit https://your.website/pics/tsuki.jpg，it will serve as image/webp format without changing the URL.

For Safari and Opera users, the original image will be used. We’ve now supported Safari/Chrome/Firefox on iOS 14/iPadOS 14
