Does this keep a GIF animation?

It exports a still WebP frame via the canvas. If your GIF is animated and you want to keep the motion in a modern format, that needs a dedicated animated-WebP encoder rather than a single-frame conversion.

Will all browsers show the WebP?

Yes — every current major browser displays WebP. For software that predates it, keep the original GIF or a PNG fallback.

Any common image format (JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, SVG…)

Convert a GIF into WebP, a far more efficient modern format. GIF is old and limited — capped at 256 colours and generally bulky — while WebP compresses better and displays in every current browser. This legacy-slug tool draws the GIF to a canvas and exports WebP in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.
