What is QR-Code?
'QR-Code' is a free and open-source Chrome Extension that creates QR codes for the current URL. Instead of using third-party APIs, it uses Kazuhiko Arase's JavaScript library for drawing QR codes. By just clicking on this extension, you can generate a unique QR Code of your active webpage and this could be used for any text as well.
