MiQR.MX -- https://miqr.mx/s/h0omo20 I’m an Infrastructure/SRE guy, but I recently found myself extremely frustrated with a basic front-end problem: generating a simple QR code. Almost every "free" QR generator out there is a trap. They either inject ads before redirecting the user, or they gate your "dynamic" link behind a $20/month paywall after it hits 100 scans. It’s a broken, hostile UX for something that should be a basic web utility. So, I built miqr.mx to solve my own itch. It’s a straightforward, lightweight tool for:
My biggest annoyance was context-switching just to generate a code. To fix this, I focused on building Chrome and Firefox extensions. You simply right-click anywhere on a webpage, and it instantly generates the QR code for that URL without leaving the tab.I would love to hear your feedback on the UX, the extensions, or if you've found any better workflows for this kind of daily utility. Chrome Store https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/ljoepbfdhbgnmaogglc... Firefox Add-ons https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/miqr-free-qr-... All this is cause someone at a local coffesshop was complaining about having to print new QR codes everytime they change the menu. Hope you find this tools useful | ||
