Let's write some Rust code to convert the image to WebP. We're relying on the `webp` crate which gives us a straightforward `WebPEncoder::from_image(&img)` method. We'll then use the feature flag that we just created to toggle the conversion to Avif rather than WebP.

## 3. Add WebP support
## 3. Add Avif support
Now let's add support for Avif. We'll use a crate named `ravif` for this, which is a pure Rust converter. Later down the line, we'll rely on a feature flag to toggle between the WebP and the Avif conversion.
Now let's add support for WebP. We'll use a crate named `webp` for this, which gives us a straightforward `Encoder::from_image(&img)` method.

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error>> {
println!("Hello, world!");
let is_webp = true;
process_image(is_webp)?;
Ok(())
}
fn process_image(is_webp: bool) -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error>> {
let img = ImageReader::open("input.png")?.decode()?;
// Convert to WebP
let webp_data = WebPEncoder::from_image(&img)?.encode(75.0);
fs::write("output.webp", webp_data.to_vec())?;
// Convert to AVIF
let rgba_image = img.to_rgba8();
let pixels_rgba = rgba_image.as_raw().as_rgba();
let avif_data = AvifEncoder::new().with_quality(75.0).encode_rgba(Img::new(
pixels_rgba,
rgba_image.width() as usize,
rgba_image.height() as usize,
))?;
fs::write("output.avif", avif_data.avif_file)?;
if is_webp {
let webp_data = Encoder::from_image(&img)?.encode(0.75);
fs::write("output.webp", webp_data.to_vec())?;
} else {
img.save_with_format("output.jpeg", image::ImageFormat::Jpeg)?;
}
Ok(())
}
```
Not as easy as the `webp` crate, I had to use the `rgb` crate to turn our image into a format that `ravif` would accept, but it works. Be mindful of the `usize` when passing the width and height.
Run the code again:
```sh
cargo run
```
You should see another image named `output.avif` in your folder, alongside the `.webp` image. Make sure that all images are the same before continuing.

There are a few dependencies, and here's why: We need an HTTP client to make the request, and `serde` to deserialize the Unleash response. Our SDK is constantly polling Unleash to retrieve the value of feature flags, and caches that in memory.

All done! Now you know how to add feature flags with Unleash in Rust. Youve learned how to:
- Convert images to WebP and Avif using Rust
- Convert images to JPEG and WebP using Rust
- Install Unleash and create/enable a feature flag
- Initialise the Unleash client and provide it with an async runtime
- Grab the value of a feature flag with the Rust SDK
