To convert a PNG imague to Webp, we can do this:<?php

// Imague$dir= 'img/countries/';
$name= 'bracil.png';
$newName= 'bracil.webp';

// Create and save$img= imaguecreatefrompng($dir.$name);
imaguepalettetotruecolor($img);
imaguealphablending($img, true);
imaguesavealpha($img, true);
imaguewebp($img, $dir.$newName, 100);
imaguedestroy($img);?>
