Why convert DIB to DDS?

Compatibility, file size, and quality rarely align perfectly – DDS gets closer to that balance than DIB for Game textures and 3D graphics. This conversion processes your files entirely in your browser using WebAssembly – no upload, no server, no privacy concerns. Perfect for sensitive or large batches. In practice, teams that make this switch rarely go back to DIB for this use case.
