QR Code Generation feature #121
Description
Feature Request: QR Code Generation
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Often, sharing URLs digitally can be cumbersome, especially when it involves typing long URLs. Users may want a quicker, more accessible way to share shortened URLs offline, such as in print or in-person interactions.
Describe the solution you'd like Implement a QR Code Generation feature that allows users to generate a QR code for every shortened URL. This QR code should be easily downloadable and sharable. This feature enhances the practicality of the URL shortener by making it easier to share links in various formats.
Describe alternatives you've considered
Manual QR Code Generation: Users could use external tools to generate QR codes manually for each URL. However, this adds unnecessary steps and complexity to the user experience.
Text-Based Sharing: Stick to text-based URL sharing only, but this limits the flexibility of how URLs can be shared, especially in physical or offline contexts.
Additional context This feature will provide a significant usability boost by offering a seamless way to generate and share QR codes. It aligns perfectly with the user-friendly and efficient goals of TTURL. Below is a conceptual mockup of the QR code feature:
QR Code Display: Each shortened URL comes with an associated QR code.
Download Button: Users can download the QR code as an image file.
