AVIF
AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) is a modern image format designed for superior compression and quality.
AVIF (AV1 Image File Format) is a modern image format developed by the Alliance for Open Media, designed to offer superior compression and image quality compared to older formats like JPEG and PNG. AVIF uses the AV1 video codec for encoding, which results in smaller file sizes without compromising on image quality. This format supports various features such as high dynamic range (HDR), 8-bit and 10-bit color depth, and lossless compression. AVIF is gaining popularity due to its efficiency and is supported by most modern browsers and devices, making it an excellent choice for web developers looking to optimize images for faster loading times and improved performance.
