As I understand webp can handle an animated series of images like gifs. When I used zola’s wonderful image processing to turn images into webp I noticed that the gifs were changed into just a standing image. Would it be possible to implement gifs into animated webp? (or maybe there is an option for which I have not configured properly)

I didn’t know it was possible. As far as I’m aware (I didn’t write the image processing code), we just delegate to [https://crates.io/crates/webp](https://crates.io/crates/webp) which only supports images. There’s another crate for animation but it doesn’t seem to be for conversion.
