QR_Generator

Generate a QR code and also Generate a red-and-white QR code using qrcode and PIL libraries to Convert the link to a QR code image and save it as '.png' for easy sharing and access. Customizable version, error correction, and visual styles ensure efficient and appealing output.

Step-by-step explanation of the code:

1. Importing Libraries: The code starts by importing the necessary libraries.

   • qrcode: This library is used for generating QR codes.
   • PIL (Python Imaging Library): This library is used for creating and manipulating images.

2. Creating QR Code Generator Object:

   qr = qrcode.QRCode(version=1,
                      error_correction=qrcode.constants.ERROR_CORRECT_H,
                      box_size=10, border=4)

   Here, a QRCode object is created from the qrcode library. The parameters passed to the object have the following meanings:

   • version=1: Specifies the QR code version. In this case, it's version 1.
   • error_correction=qrcode.constants.ERROR_CORRECT_H: Sets the error correction level to high.
   • box_size=10: Defines the size of each box (or module) in the QR code.
   • border=4: Specifies the width of the border around the QR code.

3. Adding Data to QR Code:

   qr.add_data("https://www.linkedin.com/in/prashant-kumar-parth-246245253")
   qr.make(fit=True)

   The add_data method is used to provide the data you want to encode in the QR code. In this case, it's a LinkedIn profile URL. The make method with fit=True is called to generate the QR code with the provided data.

4. Generating QR Code Image:

   img = qr.make_image(fill_color="red", back_color="white")

   This code generates the QR code image using the make_image method. The fill_color parameter sets the color of the QR code modules (boxes), and the back_color parameter sets the background color.

5. Saving the Image:

   img.save("LinkedIn_Prashant.png")

   Finally, the generated QR code image is saved as a PNG file named "LinkedIn_Prashant.png" in the current working directory.

In summary, this code snippet creates a QR code containing the provided LinkedIn profile URL and saves it as an image with red modules and a white background.
