QR Code Generator

Encode text or a URL as a QR code. Download it as PNG or SVG; higher error correction survives more damage but packs less data.

About this tool

QR codes are generated in your browser with the node-qrcode engine — the URL you encode is never sent anywhere, unlike most QR services that log scans. Choose a size up to 1024 px and an error-correction level, then export as PNG or infinitely-scalable SVG.

How to use the QR Code Generator tool

  1. Enter text or a URL. Wi-Fi strings, vCards and plain URLs all work — QR codes carry text, that is all.
  2. Pick size and error correction. Higher correction (Q, H) survives damage and logo overlays but holds less data.
  3. Generate and export. Download a crisp PNG or the SVG for print work.

Supported formats

Input

  • Any text or URL that fits the QR capacity

Output

  • PNG image
  • SVG vector

Inputs are validated before anything is processed. Invalid values and unsupported files are rejected with a clear error instead of failing silently.

Frequently asked questions

What does error correction mean here?

The percentage of the code that can be damaged and still scan: 7% (L) to 30% (H). Higher levels pack data less densely.

How much text fits in one code?

Up to a few thousand digits or roughly a thousand characters at low correction; the generator errors when the payload is too large.

Do the codes expire?

No. A QR code is just ink encoding text — there is no service behind it, so it works forever.

Is my URL tracked?

No. Generation is local; nothing is registered and no scan statistics exist.

Privacy

Everything you enter stays in this browser tab. There is no upload endpoint for tool inputs, no account, and no server-side copy of your text or files. Results are produced locally and disappear when you close the page.

No account is required and no file is ever uploaded. See the privacy policy for details about analytics and the limited data this site stores.

Known limitations

  • No logo overlay or custom colours beyond dark-on-light.
  • Maximum payload is fixed by the QR specification, not by this tool.
  • The SVG export is monochrome black-on-white.
