About the MIME Type Lookup

The MIME Type Lookup finds the MIME type for any file extension and the extensions matching any MIME type. It runs as plain JavaScript inside the page, which means there is no upload step, no queue and no size limit imposed by a server — the only limit is your own device.

What people use it for

  • Setting the right Content-Type header.
  • Configuring an upload validator.
  • Adding a type to an Apache or Nginx config.
