The QR Code Extension
Allows to generate a QR Code for the current page and scan a QR Code using the webcam.
The QR Code Extension - Generate and Scan QR Codes Easily
"The QR Code Extension" is a user-friendly browser extension that generates QR codes from the URL of the current tab with just one click. Unlike other extensions, it does not require any special permissions or cause unnecessary memory consumption. It operates entirely offline, meaning the URL of the page you visited is never sent via the network unless you opt to “Edit QR Code”, thus promising optimal levels of privacy and security.
