Hi DEV Community! ๐Ÿ‘‹

As web developers and bloggers, we compress and convert images daily. But I noticed a huge privacy issue: most free image converters force you to upload your files to their servers.

I didnโ€™t want my private or client images sitting on a random server, so I built a solution: WebPConvert.pro.

Why itโ€™s different

  • ๐Ÿ”’ 100% Privacy โ€“ The entire conversion (WebP โ†” PNG/JPG) and compression happen clientโ€‘side in your browser using JavaScript.
  • โšก Lightning Fast โ€“ No server uploads or downloads, so itโ€™s instant.
  • ๐Ÿ“‰ SEO Friendly โ€“ Great for compressing images to boost your websiteโ€™s PageSpeed.

I built the frontend to be super lightweight and fast. I am currently trying to get some initial users and would absolutely love your feedback on the UI and performance!

Let me know what you think or if you have any feature requests! ๐Ÿ‘‡
