kjua

kjua

Dynamically generated QR codes for modern browsers.
Uses QR Code Generator (MIT).

Choose between rendering the code as canvas, img or svg. The generated QR code will be in the least possible version requiered to encode the content (least number of blocks). Takes care of device pixel ratio to render crisp codes on all devices. Works in all modern browsers.

Usage

The syntax is simple. Use global method kjua to create a fresh canvas, img or svg element displaying the QR code and add it to your page. For example:

var el = kjua({text: 'hello!'});
document.querySelector('body').appendChild(el);

jQuery

A jQuery plugin is included, you can use it like

$('#my_container').kjua({text: 'Hello'});
