What it does
QR Builder turns text (including URLs) into a QR code you can scan with a phone camera.
This tool is fully client-side: it does not upload your content.
How to use it
- Open: https://tedt.org/tools/qr-builder.html
- Paste or type your content.
- The QR code updates as you type.
- Press ⌘/Ctrl+Enter to force a render (helpful if you’re pasting large content).
Notes
- QR generation uses the
qrcodejslibrary loaded from jsDelivr. - If scanning fails, shorten the content (long strings force denser codes).
Options
- Size: Larger sizes are easier to scan at a distance.
- Error correction (ECC): Higher ECC is more tolerant, but increases density.
- Colors: For reliability, keep strong contrast (dark foreground, light background).
