Hey devs π
If you've ever needed to compress or convert images before uploading them β whether to speed up website load time, reduce storage, or improve performance β youβre not alone.
Thatβs why I built a fully functional image compressor and format converter app using Next.js, Tailwind CSS, and EmailJS.
Today, Iβm sharing how it works, how you can use it or learn from it, and where to get the full source code to build your own version or start selling as a tool.
β Live Demo
π Try the app here:

π What the App Does
This is not just a demo β it's a real app with production-ready features. Here's what you can do:
β Compress images (JPG, PNG, WebP)
β Convert between formats (e.g., PNG β JPG, JPG β WebP, etc.)
β Drag & drop or select files
β Preview before download
β Download converted & compressed output
β Get user queries via EmailJS contact form
Itβs a clean and fast UI with modern styling β responsive and mobile-friendly.
