Text To QR Code - generate a QR code from text
Have you ever faced the problem of sharing content, such as a URL, with someone unknown?
Lately, while participating in chess tournaments, I often find myself sharing a link to a page containing game results. As it turns out, not every web browser has the feature to generate a QR code from a URL. This is how the idea for this application was born.
The plan for this project was simple:
- maximum functionality in the shortest time possible - #appinaweek,
- the application available for both iOS and Android,
- a simple, clear interface,
- two versions: a free (lite) version with ads and a paid version without ads, with the ability to save the generated/scanned QR code to the device's gallery,
- support for multiple languages, starting with Polish and English.
Functionalities:
- generating a QR code from the provided text,
- the ability to launch the application directly from the location where I want to share the text, such as from a web browser,
- scanning QR codes,
- saving generated/scanned codes,
- qptionally, saving the QR code in the gallery as an image.
Technology:
- the choice of technology was quite obvious - Flutter SDK,
- the application's interface was built based on Material Design version 3,
- ads in the "lite" version are provided by Google AdMob,
- the Sketch software was used for the interface and store materials.
As planned, the application was created in 5 days, and it took a few more days to place three instances (2xLite, 1xPro) on Google Play and the AppStore.
Feel free to test this idea:
