Go Image Converting
h2non/bimg can handle both if the underlying libvips is compiled with support for both formats.

.Webp is the bane of my existence
if you're using linux (which it doesn't seem so) there's also vispdisp https://github.com/jcupitt/vipsdisp which is based on https://github.com/libvips/libvips which will likely take over how images are decoded in the future for everything, at least methodology wise.

How are responsive image sets are generated, stored, and managed server-side?
The magic happens by way of a library called Libvips, which contains an ultra-high-speed low-memory image resizer.

imagor v1 - a fast, Docker-ready image processing server in Go, libvips and more
imagor uses one of the most efficient image processing library libvips. It is typically 4-8x faster than using the quickest ImageMagick and GraphicsMagick settings.

My project: railstart app
libvips v8.6+ or ImageMagick for image analysis and transformations

railstart-niceadmin support more features

Fast, Docker-ready image processing server written in Go and libvips, with Thumbor URL syntax
That's very cool! Though performance will not be close -- your nice solution is based on libgd, which is typically 5x slower than libvips, and needs 10x more memory. At usual display sizes, libvips will generally deliver the resized image in under 50ms, and will handle large images (relatively) gracefully.

Tutorial on how to use Active Storage on Rails 6.2
As mentioned, active storage uses third-party software to enable file processing. You can download and install libvipsor ImageMagick v8.6+ for image analysis and transformations, ffmpeg v3.4+ for video/audio analysis and video previews, and poppleror muPDFfor PDF previews separately, as Rails will not install this software.

Image Compression with Golang
However, this article has only one prerequisite, which is the installation of libvips, otherwise it will not be possible to process the images. If you happen to have Homebrew installed on your computer, the process is simpler.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing CImg and libvips you can also consider the following projects:
imagick - Go binding to ImageMagick's MagickWand C API
OpenCV - Open Source Computer Vision Library
sharp - High performance Node.js image processing, the fastest module to resize JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF and TIFF images. Uses the libvips library.
GD - GD Graphics Library
FreeImage - A custom distribution of FreeImage, with a CMake-based build system. Used by the Athena Game Framework.
Boost.GIL - Boost.GIL - Generic Image Library | Requires C++14 since Boost 1.80
tesseract-ocr - Tesseract Open Source OCR Engine (main repository)
