gatsby-image: WebP image sources do not generate PNG fallback
See original GitHub issueDescription
Using a WebP image, only .webp
files are generated.
Steps to reproduce
const Image = () => {
const data = useStaticQuery(graphql`
query {
placeholderImage: file(relativePath: { eq: "sample.webp" }) {
childImageSharp {
fluid(maxWidth: 300) {
...GatsbyImageSharpFluid_withWebp
}
}
}
}
`);
return <Img fluid={data.placeholderImage.childImageSharp.fluid} />;
};

Expected result
A fallback type should be generated, ideally PNG since WebP supports transparency.
Actual result
Only WebP images are created.

@cpboyd I’m on it! https://github.com/gatsbyjs/gatsby/pull/27443
@ascorbic Should there perhaps be documentation added to https://www.gatsbyjs.com/docs/working-with-images/ in this regard?
Especially as there’s more prevalence of new image containers with better compression like WebP and HEIF? For example, iPhones now default to HEIF which has led to known issues with systems unprepared to handle that (e.g. SAT testing)
I still think Gatsby should, ideally, focus on being user-friendly with good defaults out of the box. Gatsby already provides default support for polyfills, so I’m not sure how a default preferring an image fallback to a format with good cross-browser support is any different from that.
