What Is A QR Code Generator?
A QR code generator creates a scannable code that stores information such as a website URL, WiFi login details, contact information, email drafts, SMS messages, phone numbers or plain text. When someone scans the QR code with a phone camera, the device reads the encoded content and opens the relevant action.
How Does A Website QR Code Work?
A website QR code stores a URL such as https://cheesebridge.com/. When scanned,
the phone reads the URL and opens the website in the browser. The QR code does not host the website;
it simply stores the link.
