PNG to WebP can keep transparency
WebP supports transparent pixels, so transparent areas in a browser-readable PNG can remain transparent in the output. Check the preview before using the file in a production workflow.
Choose between file size and detail
WebP quality controls the balance between a compact file and visible detail. Keep the original PNG when you need the source's exact pixels or a dependable editing master.

Limitations
