  • Golang has no WebP support
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 14 Oct 2022
    There is a decoder in golang.org/x/images/webp already [0] — the x libs are part of the Go Project but outside the main Go tree — and are fairly well-known to many Go developers, but clearly not all. Stuff in x sometimes makes its way into the standard library, although not always.

    And there is a third-party package [1] for webp also, in native Go, which includes both a decoder and an encoder. Plus there are other third-party packages, that bind to external code (C libs, at a guess).

    — If your complaint is speficially that webp support should be a part of the standard library, then perhaps keep an eye on the stuff in x, that's often where stuff happens before making it into the stdlib.

    And/or file an issue.

    And/or you are welcome to contribute code ;)
