QR Code Developer

Hey HN, I’m from QR Code Developer, a simple SaaS tool for marketers and creators to generate & manage dynamic QR codes. It came out of frustration watching small teams overpay for bloated QR tools that lacked affiliate features or analytics transparency. We’re keeping it clean: privacy-first, no-nonsense pricing, and analytics. I’m currently onboarding a small group of affiliate partners (30% lifetime recurring commission) and would love feedback or thoughts from the HN crowd. Here’s the site: https://qrcodeveloper.com/affiliate AMA or DM—happy to share more behind the scenes.

QR Code Developer launched on January 13, 2025 with 7 votes. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.

    Hi HN, I built a small QR code editor after repeatedly running into the same problem: once a QR code is printed, the destination is frozen. This tool supports both: Static QR codes (generated entirely client-side) Dynamic QR codes (editable destination after creation) Dynamic QR codes come with a minimal dashboard where you can: Update the QR destination without reprinting See basic scan stats (count, device, time, approximate origin) I intentionally kept the feature set small and avoided heavy analytics or tracking. The goal is something simple that works well for menus, flyers, events, and…

    I realized that the PDF engines of modern desktop browsers (PDFium and PDF.js) support JavaScript with enough I/O primitives to make a basic game like Tetris. It was a bit tricky to find a union of features that work in both engines, but in the end it turns out that showing/hiding annotation "fields" works well to make monochrome pixels, and keyboard input can be achieved by typing in a text input box. All in all it's quite janky but a nice reminder of how general purpose PDF scripting can be. The linked PDF is all ASCII so you can just open it in a text editor, or have a look at…

    I originally built this app to organize and reuse interesting React + Tailwind components I came across on Twitter, inspired by the shadcn/ui approach. Later, a friend started contributing their own components, and it got me thinking—this could grow into something bigger, like an NPM for design engineers to share and use components. Would love to hear your thoughts!
