Build with '--with-system-webp':

Still, it's not clear what subset of libwebp features will become popular. For example, I don't see much enthusiasm for animated webp. Even their own blog is full of GIFs: https://blog.google/products/allo/buzzfeed-stickers-google-a...

yes, but as the server responding to your webp enabled client, I can't tell which version of support you actually have. I can infer, but that's problematic.
