| Extension | MIME Type | Description |

A MIME type (also called a media type or content type) is a two-part label like text/html or image/png that tells software what kind of file it is dealing with. Web servers send it in the Content-Type header, and browsers use it to decide how to handle a response. This table maps common file extensions to their standard MIME types.
Search by extension (like png or .mp4) or by MIME type (like application/json) to filter the table. Handy when configuring a server, writing a file upload validator or setting a download’s Content-Type. Everything runs locally in your browser.
