Why it matters

Why generate your own QR code

A QR code is a fast, no-typing way to hand someone a link, a Wi-Fi password, or your contact details — scan and go. Building it locally means no third-party redirect sits between the code and the destination, so it keeps working for as long as the destination does.

Because generation happens with JavaScript in your browser, nothing you type is sent to a server first — the code is drawn directly from your content.
