Comment (by svenwordpress):

 I found a code to add a plugin which enables webp. Think that is the base,
 but there is much more needed to handle webp. Especially in Gutenberg
 there need to be block settings for it. The question for me is if it will
 be handled within an image block or as an own block. An own block would
 offer more possibilities.


 {{{
 <?php
 /**

 **/

 //** *Enable upload for webp image files.*/
 function webp_upload_mimes($existing_mimes) {
 $existing_mimes['webp'] = 'image/webp';
 return $existing_mimes;
 }
 add_filter('mime_types', 'webp_upload_mimes');

 //** * Enable preview for webp image files.*/
 function webp_is_displayable($result, $path) {
 if ($result === false) {
 $displayable_image_types = array( IMAGETYPE_WEBP );
 $info = @getimagesize( $path );

 if (empty($info)) {
 $result = false;
 } elseif (!in_array($info[2], $displayable_image_types)) {
 $result = false;
 } else {
 $result = true;
 }
 }

 return $result;
 }
 add_filter('file_is_displayable_image', 'webp_is_displayable', 10, 2);
 ?>
 }}}
