Ever wondered to yourself how easy it can be to create a QR code without a need of a website or third party software?
Actually t's pretty much easier, thanks to python. With python we an make use of only 2 lines of code to make this happen.
We will be able to create QR Codes for URLs and even any text we wish to.
Have a doubt, let me show you below:

First things first, we need to install a library to help us with this functionality:

pip install qrcode
After the installation, in our file let write code:
import qrcode
image = qrcode.make("PAste in your URL")
image.save("name to save it")
