MIME Type Guidelines

  • Content-Type Header: Servers communicate file formats to clients via the `Content-Type` HTTP header using these standard identifiers.
  • Security: Providing correct MIME types prevents browsers from incorrectly executing or rendering unsafe payloads (MIME-sniffing protection).
  • Structure: Composed of a discrete type (e.g., `text`, `image`) and a subtype (e.g., `html`, `png`), separated by a slash.
