Tool QR code generator

Claude helped me build this tool for creating QR codes, for both text/URLs and for connecting to WiFi networks.

Screenshot of a QR code generator web form. Heading "QR code generator" with subtitle "Create a scannable code for a URL, text, or WiFi network." A segmented toggle shows "URL / text" and "WiFi" with WiFi selected. Below are fields: "Network name (SSID)" with placeholder "My WiFi"; "Password" with placeholder "Password" and a blue "Show" link; "Security" dropdown set to "WPA / WPA2 / WPA3 (most common)"; an unchecked "Hidden" checkbox; helper text "Not sure? Leave it on WPA / WPA2 / WPA3 — that covers almost every home WiFi network." Below that: "Style" dropdown set to "Square", an unchecked "Border" checkbox, "Size" dropdown set to "Medium", and a "Color" swatch showing black. At the bottom is a blue "Generate QR code" button.
