I open sourced the QR designer from my failed startup

My designer is somewhat special, if I do say so myself, as it allows you to put arbitrary designs in the middle area of the QR while still being totally scannable.

In plain words

This is an open-source QR code designer that lets users place custom designs in the center of QR codes while maintaining full scannability. It was created from a failed startup and released on GitHub. The tool is designed for anyone wanting to create branded or personalized QR codes without compromising functionality.
