From the README

Paint pixel art. It becomes a real, scannable QR code: the art is the code.

No server, no build step, no CDN: everything runs in the browser, works from file://, and can be embedded in your website (see below).

Two backends. Standard is an ordinary QR code: any phone camera reads it. Custom is my own layout: a circular grid with the finder patterns inside it, so the code fills a round profile picture edge to edge. It reads with the engine's own decoder, not with a phone camera.
