Overview

About MIME Type Lookup

MIME Type Lookup maps a small list of common file extensions to content types and returns a Content-Type header example. Use it when checking familiar web assets such as JSON, WebP, PDF or MP4. For example, `webp` maps to `image/webp`. The dictionary is not the complete IANA media-type registry, does not inspect file bytes and may not reflect platform-specific aliases. An unknown entry falls back to a generic suggestion rather than proving the file type. Lookup happens in the browser; verify uncommon or security-sensitive types against authoritative documentation.
