v3.1.0

qrbit@3.1.0 — 2026-06-29

Replace node-qrcode with a native Rust QR engine; drop the qrcode runtime dependency.

Features

• replace node-qrcode with a native Rust port — the no-logo toSvg() path no longer depends on the qrcode npm package; QR encoding and SVG rendering are now a self-contained Rust port producing byte-identical output (validated against ~18,500 differential cases), ~1.5× faster for SVG generation (dd4abf7, #115)

  import { QrBit } from "qrbit";
  
  // Same API and byte-identical SVG — qrbit no longer pulls in node-qrcode at runtime.
  const svg = await new QrBit({ text: "https://jaredwray.com" }).toSvg();

Bug Fixes

• match node-qrcode's lenient hex color parsing for backgroundColor / foregroundColor (74b676f, #115)
• apply foregroundColor independently when backgroundColor is omitted (a foreground-only color was previously ignored), and preserve aspect ratio when only one of width/height is passed to the PNG/JPEG/WebP rasterizer instead of stretching to a fixed 2× (8f2f4a7, #117)

Performance

• render logo QR modules as a single <path> instead of one <rect> per module, shrinking the SVG and the work resvg does when rasterizing to PNG/JPEG/WebP; raster output is pixel-identical (412b351, #118)
