N°03 The context

Why convert a PNG to WEBP.

The PNG (Portable Network Graphics) format is widely used, but it isn't always suited to every use case: web sharing, editing, archiving, compatibility.

The WebP (format moderne par Google) format offers an alternative — often lighter, more modern, or more universal. With our PNG to WEBP converter, the switch takes just seconds, without uploading your files anywhere.
