The title of the post is misleading. You're actually just building an interface to run an imported QR code generator when a button is clicked. The generator itself is prebuilt. Would be far more interesting to actually write the generator itself, and do a post about that

The title remains misleading even if you clarify in the post that you aren't really a qr code generator

It doesn't clearly say that anywhere. You open with:

Making a qr-code generator is pretty simple tbh because of the existing stuff available on the internet.

Which could easily read as: 'the code to make a QR code is easy to write because of the wealth of information online about how QR codes work' - because you again state that you are 'making a qr-code generator'

You have got that wrong or maybe didnt wrote it, I have also mentioned in the blog that the base code isnt written by me.
