Use Python for WEBP Images Dithering
Create Python Apps to Dither WEBP Images and Photos via Server APIs
Aspose.Imaging for Python
Overview
How to Dither WEBP Images and Photos with Python
Enhancing image and photo parameters for a website significantly impacts web traffic. Among these optimizations, reducing an image’s color palette effectively minimizes file sizes and accelerates page loading. Yet, to prevent abrupt edges or disturbances in color gradients, leveraging the dithering method is recommended. This technique aids in refining color transitions and enhancing overall image quality. It introduces a slight “noise” that positively influences image perception. For dither images in the WEBP format, we’ll apply Aspose.Imaging for Python via .NET API which is a feature-rich, powerful and easy to use image manipulation and conversion API for Python platform. You may install it using the following command from your system command.
The system command line
>> pip install aspose-imaging-python-net
Steps to Dither WEBP via Python
You need the aspose-imaging-python-net to try the following workflow in your own environment.
- load WEBP files with Image.Load method;
- dither image;
- save dithered image to disc in the supported by Aspose.Imaging format.
System Requirements
Aspose.Imaging for Python is supported on all major operating systems. Just make sure that you have the following prerequisites.
- Microsoft Windows / Linux with .NET Core Runtime.
- Python and PyPi package manager.

About Aspose.Imaging for Python API
Aspose.Imaging API is an image processing solution to create, modify, draw or convert images (photos) within applications. It offers: cross-platform Image processing, including but not limited to conversions between various image formats (including uniform multi-page or multi-frame image processing), modifications such as drawing, working with graphic primitives, transformations (resize, crop, flip&rotate, binarization, grayscale, adjust), advanced image manipulation features (filtering, dithering, masking, deskewing), and memory optimization strategies. It’s a standalone library and does not depend on any software for image operations. One can easily add high-performance image conversion features with native APIs within projects. These are 100% private on-premise APIs and images are processed at your servers.Dither WEBP via Online App

WEBP What is WEBP File Format
WebP, introduced by Google, is a modern raster web image file format that is based on lossless and lossy compression. It provides same image quality while considerably reducing the image size. Since most of the web pages use images as effective representation of data, the use of WebP images in web pages results in faster loading of web pages. As per Google, WebP lossless images are 26% smaller in size compared to PNGs, while WebP lossy images are 25-34% smaller than comparable JPEG images. Images are compared based on the Structural Similarity (SSIM) index between WebP and other image file formats. WebP is a sister project of WebM multimedia container format.
