  • Open and self-hostable: Fully open source, easy to run locally or in Docker, no vendor lock‑in or paywalls.
  • Using known libraries: Built on established, reliable library for QR code generation.
  • No fluff: Focused on correctness and portability over logos, stickers, or heavy theming that can reduce scan rates.
