πŸš€ Why I Built This

Many existing QR code generators either charge for basic features, include watermarks, or have complicated interfaces. I wanted to create a tool that is:

  1. Completely Free - No hidden costs or premium tiers
  2. Easy to Use - Simple, intuitive interface
  3. Feature-Rich - Advanced customization without complexity
  4. Fast - Instant generation without server delays

  1. Enter Your Data: Type or paste the URL, text, or information you want to encode
  2. Customize Design: Choose colors, add a logo, and adjust error correction level
  3. Preview: See your QR code update in real-time
  4. Download: Export in your preferred format

🎯 Use Cases

  • Business Cards: Add QR codes linking to your portfolio or LinkedIn
  • Marketing Materials: Create branded QR codes for campaigns
  • Event Management: Generate codes for tickets or registration
  • Restaurant Menus: Digital menu access via QR codes
  • Product Packaging: Link to product information or tutorials
  • WiFi Sharing: Create QR codes for easy WiFi access

πŸ”§ Technical Highlights

Error Correction Levels

The app supports multiple error correction levels:

  • Low (L): ~7% correction
  • Medium (M): ~15% correction
  • Quartile (Q): ~25% correction
  • High (H): ~30% correction

Higher levels allow QR codes to be scanned even if partially damaged or obscured by a logo.

When adding logos, the app automatically:

  • Calculates optimal logo size

  • Maintains scannability

🎨 Customization Options

The app is fully responsive and optimized for:

  • Touch interactions
  • Various screen sizes
  • Fast mobile loading
  • Easy file downloads on mobile devices

πŸ” Privacy & Security

  • No Data Storage: QR codes are generated client-side
  • No Tracking: We don't collect or store user data
  • Secure: All processing happens in your browser

🚦 Performance

  • ⚑ Instant Generation: Real-time updates as you customize
  • 🎯 Lightweight: Minimal dependencies for fast loading
  • πŸ“¦ Optimized Bundle: Code splitting for better performance

🌟 Future Enhancements

I'm planning to add:

  • [ ] Batch QR code generation
  • [ ] QR code templates for common use cases
  • [ ] Analytics tracking for generated codes
  • [ ] More export formats (EPS, PDF)
  • [ ] QR code scanning feature
  • [ ] Social media sharing options

πŸ“ Conclusion
