QR Code

<sc-qr-code> | ScQrCode
Since 2.0 stable

Generates a QR code and renders it using the Canvas API.

QR codes are useful for providing small pieces of information to users who can quickly scan them with a smartphone. Most smartphones have built-in QR code scanners, so simply pointing the camera at a QR code will decode it and allow the user to visit a website, dial a phone number, read a message, etc. 


<div class="qr-overview">
  <sc-qr-code value="https://shoelace.style/" label="Scan this code to visit Shoelace on the web!"></sc-qr-code>
  <br />

  <sc-input maxlength="255" clearable label="Value"></sc-input>
</div>

<script>
  const container = document.querySelector('.qr-overview');
  const qrCode = container.querySelector('sc-qr-code');
  const input = container.querySelector('sc-input');

  customElements.whenDefined('sc-qr-code').then(() => {
    input.value = qrCode.value;
    input.addEventListener('sc-input', () => (qrCode.value = input.value));
  });
</script>

<style>
  .qr-overview {
    max-width: 256px;
  }

  .qr-overview sc-input {
    margin-top: 1rem;
  }
</style>

import { useState } from 'react';
import ScQrCode from '@styledc-dev/styledc/dist/react/qr-code';
import ScInput from '@styledc-dev/styledc/dist/react/input';

const css = `
  .qr-overview {
    max-width: 256px;
  }

  .qr-overview sc-input {
    margin-top: 1rem;
  }
`;

const App = () => {
  const [value, setValue] = useState('https://shoelace.style/');

  return (
    <>
      <div className="qr-overview">
        <ScQrCode value={value} label="Scan this code to visit Shoelace on the web!" />
        <br />

        <ScInput maxlength="255" clearable onInput={event => setValue(event.target.value)} />
      </div>

      <style>{css}</style>
    </>
  );
};

Examples

Colors

Use the fill and background attributes to modify the QR code’s colors. You should always ensure good contrast for optimal compatibility with QR code scanners. 

<sc-qr-code value="https://shoelace.style/" fill="deeppink" background="white"></sc-qr-code>

import ScQrCode from '@styledc-dev/styledc/dist/react/qr-code';

const App = () => <ScQrCode value="https://shoelace.style/" fill="deeppink" background="white" />;

Size

Use the size attribute to change the size of the QR code.

<sc-qr-code value="https://shoelace.style/" size="64"></sc-qr-code>

import ScQrCode from '@styledc-dev/styledc/dist/react/qr-code';

const App = () => <ScQrCode value="https://shoelace.style/" size="64" />;

Radius

Create a rounded effect with the radius attribute.

<sc-qr-code value="https://shoelace.style/" radius="0.5"></sc-qr-code>

import ScQrCode from '@styledc-dev/styledc/dist/react/qr-code';

const App = () => <ScQrCode value="https://shoelace.style/" radius="0.5" />;

Error Correction

QR codes can be rendered with various levels of error correction that can be set using the error-correction attribute. This example generates four codes with the same value using different error correction levels. 

<div class="qr-error-correction">
  <sc-qr-code value="https://shoelace.style/" error-correction="L"></sc-qr-code>
  <sc-qr-code value="https://shoelace.style/" error-correction="M"></sc-qr-code>
  <sc-qr-code value="https://shoelace.style/" error-correction="Q"></sc-qr-code>
  <sc-qr-code value="https://shoelace.style/" error-correction="H"></sc-qr-code>
</div>

<style>
  .qr-error-correction {
    display: flex;
    flex-wrap: wrap;
    gap: 1rem;
  }
</style>

import ScQrCode from '@styledc-dev/styledc/dist/react/qr-code';

const css = `
  .qr-error-correction {
    display: flex;
    flex-wrap: wrap;
    gap: 1rem;
  }
`;

const App = () => {
  return (
    <>
      <div className="qr-error-correction">
        <ScQrCode value="https://shoelace.style/" error-correction="L" />
        <ScQrCode value="https://shoelace.style/" error-correction="M" />
        <ScQrCode value="https://shoelace.style/" error-correction="Q" />
        <ScQrCode value="https://shoelace.style/" error-correction="H" />
      </div>

      <style>{css}</style>
    </>
  );
};
