Description

Will be very great if you will add a support for WebP format. Witch includes loading WebP images and playing the animations.. Like the Fresco library does.

To add support of loading images shouldn't be hard.. the challenge is to add animation playing support.

Tnx.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Look at how Glide currently handles image decoding (e.g., for GIF, PNG) and the integration points for adding a new format. Study the Fresco library's WebP support as a reference. Check the Android platform's native WebP support and consider using a library like libwebp.
