- Worth noticing
- The browser-based tool offers six QR detail levels, from 37 × 37 to 77 × 77, and a free API that needs no key.
Field notes
The interface lets users alter a scene’s crowd, spacing, surroundings and QR detail, then edit individual folk’s names, poses, outfits or hair. Exports include a 1,320 px PNG, SVG, an emoji grid and a JSON recipe; the page also describes a free, no-key API. The creator says generation stays in the browser and that codes are checked for scanning before download.
