Recently, Google has once again incorporated native support for the JPEG XL image format into the Chromium browser engine. To adhere to long - established memory safety and security compliance standards, Google has opted for a brand - new decoder, jxl - rs, which is implemented in Rust. At present, this functionality has been seamlessly integrated into the codebase. However, users are still required to manually activate the #enable - jxl - image - format option via the chrome://flags page. This development represents the first instance of the JPEG XL format making a comeback to Chrome's official channels since the Chrome 110 version was released in 2022. In the meantime, the level of support for JPEG XL in other mainstream browsers is far from ideal. For example, in Firefox, users need to manually enable it in the settings, and Safari only provides partial support.
