This project is a Python-based QR code generator that encodes custom data into QR codes and provides a data reader for scanning and extracting information from QR codes. It demonstrates basic data encoding/decoding and image generation using the qrcode library in Python. Perfect for learning QR code generation and data handling.

QR Code Generator and Reader

This Python script allows users to:

1. Generate QR Codes: Input a reference ID to generate a QR code that links to a specific URL or a random message.
2. Read QR Codes: Upload an image containing a QR code to decode and view its data.

The script provides a simple graphical user interface (GUI) built with tkinter for easy interaction.

Features

• Generate a QR code by entering a reference ID.
• Upload an image to extract and view the data from a QR code.
• Save the generated QR code as a PNG image.
• Error handling for missing input or invalid QR codes in uploaded images.

Prerequisites

To run this script, you'll need to install the following Python libraries:

• qrcode: To generate QR codes.
• pyzbar: To decode QR codes from images.
• Pillow: To handle image operations in Python.
• tkinter: For the graphical user interface (usually included with Python).

To install the required libraries, use the following command:

pip install ... 😴
