Description from store
JPEG XL is a new image format created by Google, Cloudinary, amongst others, and published by the same committee that created the familiar JPEG format. It supports lossy and lossless encodings, and allows for smaller images than all other formats currently available in browsers.
Because the format is so new, it isn’t widely supported by browsers. This extension allows pages to load JPEG XL images easily and normally, without the otherwise necessary browser support for them.
See more about JPEG XL here: https://jpegxl.info
Note: JPEG XL is the best image format ever!

- As others mentioned, it works for static images only with no alpha transparency or wide gamut. Additionally, the description wrongly states that the JPEG-XL format "has been created by Google". It's the opposite - the format was developed by the independent JPEG group while Google actively fights it to promote own AVIF format.

- Worked before but checking https://jpegxl.info/resources/jpeg-xl-test-page.html I just get it saying the browser doesn't support it.
- Evgeny Grin
- Nice, generally works. Animated images are decoded as static. HDR input and HDR output are not supported correctly. Now sure whether it is the extension or the API limitation.

- Thank you for this extension. Today, I found out about the AVIF format - the one Google advocated (I'm guessing that it was "Invented Here") As everyone knows, what Google Wants, everyone has to accept.

- Why has Google REMOVED native support for JPEG XL? It WAS SUPPORTED. They removed it. Please give it back!

- It does what it says it does, but for some reason removes "src" attribute from some images, effectively breaking only SOME images, only a few specific websites (see gamejolt.com game pages, skroutz.gr product->stores section)

- This extension can add JPEGXL support to chrome AND edge. Jpegxl is a game change image format, use it for all your images.

- Great Plugin, especially since chrome will remove the format.
