react-image-webp v0.8.0

React image webp

HTML Picture instead of this library

I highly recommend using HTML for trying load webp images. And using this library for very specific cases. Example for native HTML :

<picture>
  <source srcset="logo.webp" type="image/webp">
  <img src="logo.png" alt="logo">
</picture>
