This program serves as a learning tool and demonstration platform for understanding the step-by-step generation of QR codes. It provides insights into the workings of QR codes and lets users visualize the entire process.
- Executable Version: If you wish to download the
.exe, navigate to the_exportfolder in this repository. - Web Version: For a web-based experience, you can run the program directly in your browser from my official website.
- Ensure to follow the process step-by-step. Skipping generation steps may lead to unexpected errors and an incorrect representation of the QR code.
- Built with Godot v3.5.1
- Supports only Version 1 of QR codes (21x21 matrix size)
- Currently operates only in byte-mode
This program was inspired by and built upon foundational knowledge from various sources. I like to extend my heartfelt appreciation to the following articles and their authors:
-
"An Introductory Tutorial For Encoding QR Codes" by Zavier Henry
- An introductory piece that lays down the basic principles behind QR codes, making it easier for beginners to grasp the foundational concepts.
-
"QR Code Tutorial" by Thonky
- A highly technical and exhaustive exploration of QR code generation. While intricate, it offers a deep dive into every nuance of the QR code system.
-
"Reed-Solomon Error Correcting Codes from the Bottom Up" by tomverbeure
- This article focuses on the Reed-Solomon Error Correcting Codes employed in QR generation, presenting the concept without delving into the complexities of Galois fields.
