## README

# cwebp-bin ![GitHub Actions Status](https://github.com/imagemin/cwebp-bin/workflows/test/badge.svg?branch=main)

> [WebP](https://developers.google.com/speed/webp/) is a new image format that provides lossless and lossy compression for images on the web. WebP lossless images are 26% smaller in size compared to PNGs. WebP lossy images are 25-34% smaller in size compared to JPEG images at equivalent SSIM index.

You probably want [`imagemin-webp`](https://github.com/imagemin/imagemin-webp) instead.
