About MIME type checker

A MIME type (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extension) is a two-part identifier that specifies the format of a file — for example, 'image/png', 'application/pdf', or 'text/javascript'. Web servers send MIME types in HTTP headers so browsers know how to handle files; incorrect MIME types cause downloads, blank pages, or broken embeds. The MIME Type Checker uses the browser's File API to display the MIME type reported by the operating system for any uploaded file, alongside the file size, extension, and last modified timestamp. No file content is uploaded — all information is read locally.
