🚀 Getting Started

These instructions will get you a copy of the project up and running on your local machine.

Prerequisites

You need Python 3 installed on your system.

The core functionality of this project relies on the qrcode library, which you can install using pip.

pip install qrcode

How to Run

1. Clone the repository to your local machine:

   git clone https://github.com/YourUsername/qr-code-generator.git

2. Navigate to the project directory:

 cd qr-code-generator

3. Run the script using the Python interpreter:

   python qr_generator.py

🎮 How to Use

The script will prompt you for two inputs:

1. "Enter the text or URL:"
   • Provide the data you want to encode (e.g., a website address, Wi-Fi details, or a short message).
2. "Enter the file name:"
   • Provide the name for the output image file (e.g., my_qr_code.png). A file extension like .png is required.

Once both inputs are provided, the QR code image will be saved to the same directory, and a confirmation message will be printed.

💻 Code Overview

The script is a single, concise file, qr_generator.py, that performs the following key actions:

• Imports the necessary qrcode library.
• Collects the data to be encoded and the desired output filename from the user.
• Creates the QR code using qrcode.QRCode() with standard settings (box_size=10, border=4).
• Encodes the input data using qr.add_data(data).
• Generates and saves the final image (image.save(file_name)), using black for the foreground (fill) and white for the background.
