Qr Code

A composable QR code generator that renders PNG data, SVG markup, or a canvas from a string value. It supports configurable size, error correction, colors, margins, loading skeletons, overlays, and PNG/SVG downloads.

Installation

pnpm dlx shadcn@latest add https://diceui.com/r/radix-vega/qr-code.json

Usage

usage.tsx
import {  QRCode,  QRCodeCanvas,  QRCodeDownload,  QRCodeSkeleton,} from "@/components/ui/qr-code";export function Example() {  return (    <QRCode value="https://example.com" size={240} foregroundColor="#111827">      <QRCodeSkeleton />      <QRCodeCanvas aria-label="QR code for example.com" />      <QRCodeDownload format="png">Download QR code</QRCodeDownload>    </QRCode>  );}
  • Display payment, authentication, invitation, product, or profile QR codes.
  • Offer multiple rendering formats such as canvas, SVG, or downloadable PNG/SVG files.
  • Show a loading state while QR data is generated asynchronously.
  • Place a logo, badge, or other content in the center using the overlay component.

Examples

Canvas QR code with loading state

Renders a 240px canvas QR code with a skeleton shown until generation completes.

canvas-qr-code-with-loading-state.tsx
import { QRCode, QRCodeCanvas, QRCodeSkeleton } from "@/components/ui/qr-code";export function CanvasExample() {  return (    <QRCode value="https://example.com/invite/abc123" size={240}>      <QRCodeSkeleton />      <QRCodeCanvas aria-label="Invitation QR code" />    </QRCode>  );}

SVG QR code with custom colors

Uses SVG output for a scalable QR code with custom foreground and background colors.

svg-qr-code-with-custom-colors.tsx
import { QRCode, QRCodeSvg } from "@/components/ui/qr-code";export function SvgExample() {  return (    <QRCode      value="otpauth://totp/Example:user@example.com?secret=JBSWY3DPEHPK3PXP"      size={200}      level="H"      foregroundColor="#0f172a"      backgroundColor="#f8fafc"    >      <QRCodeSvg aria-label="Authenticator setup QR code" />    </QRCode>  );}

Downloadable PNG and SVG QR code

Provides separate controls for downloading the generated QR code in PNG and SVG formats.

downloadable-png-and-svg-qr-code.tsx
import {  QRCode,  QRCodeCanvas,  QRCodeDownload,} from "@/components/ui/qr-code";export function DownloadExample() {  return (    <QRCode value="https://shop.example.com/order/8472" filename="order-8472">      <QRCodeCanvas aria-label="Order QR code" />      <div className="flex gap-2">        <QRCodeDownload format="png">Save PNG</QRCodeDownload>        <QRCodeDownload format="svg">Save SVG</QRCodeDownload>      </div>    </QRCode>  );}

QR code with centered overlay

Places a visual badge or short label in the center of the QR code.

qr-code-with-centered-overlay.tsx
import {  QRCode,  QRCodeCanvas,  QRCodeOverlay,} from "@/components/ui/qr-code";export function OverlayExample() {  return (    <QRCode value="https://example.com/profile/ada" size={220}>      <QRCodeCanvas aria-label="Ada's profile QR code" />      <QRCodeOverlay aria-hidden="true">        <span className="rounded-sm bg-white px-2 py-1 text-xs font-semibold">          ADA        </span>      </QRCodeOverlay>    </QRCode>  );}

API reference

PropTypeDefaultDescription
QRCodeQRCodePropsnullRoot QR code component. Extends all div props except the inherited onError prop, and provides value, rendering options, generation callbacks, and asChild.
QRCode.valuestringrequiredText or payload encoded into the QR code.
QRCode.sizenumber200QR code width and height in pixels.
QRCode.level"L" | "M" | "Q" | "H""M"Error-correction level passed to qrcode.
QRCode.marginnumber1Quiet-zone margin passed to qrcode.
QRCode.qualitynumber0.92PNG generation quality passed to qrcode.
QRCode.backgroundColorstring"#ffffff"Light module/background color.
QRCode.foregroundColorstring"#000000"Dark module/foreground color.
QRCode.onError(error: Error) => voidnullCalled when QR generation fails.
QRCode.onGenerated() => voidnullCalled after data URL, canvas, and SVG generation succeeds.
QRCode.asChildbooleanundefinedUses Radix Slot instead of a div root.
QRCodeCanvasQRCodeCanvasPropsnullCanvas output component. Extends all canvas props and supports asChild.
QRCodeCanvas.asChildbooleanundefinedUses Radix Slot instead of a canvas element.
QRCodeSvgQRCodeSvgPropsnullSVG output component. Extends all div props and injects generated SVG markup with dangerouslySetInnerHTML. Renders null until SVG generation completes.
QRCodeSvg.asChildbooleanundefinedUses Radix Slot instead of a div wrapper.
QRCodeImageQRCodeImagePropsnullImage output component. Extends all img props and uses the generated PNG data URL as src.
QRCodeImage.altstring"QR Code"Alternative text for the generated image.
QRCodeImage.asChildbooleanundefinedUses Radix Slot instead of an img element.
QRCodeDownloadQRCodeDownloadPropsnullButton that downloads the generated PNG data URL or SVG string. Extends all button props.
QRCodeDownload.filenamestring"qrcode"Base filename used for the downloaded file, without its extension.
QRCodeDownload.format"png" | "svg""png"Download format and file extension.
QRCodeDownload.asChildbooleanundefinedUses Radix Slot instead of a button element.
QRCodeDownload.childrenReact.ReactNode`Download ${format.toUpperCase()}`Button content. Defaults to Download PNG or Download SVG.
QRCodeOverlayQRCodeOverlayPropsnullAbsolutely positioned div for centered content over the QR code. Extends all div props.
QRCodeOverlay.asChildbooleanundefinedUses Radix Slot instead of a div element.
QRCodeSkeletonQRCodeSkeletonPropsnullAnimated placeholder shown until QR generation has produced data. Extends all div props.
QRCodeSkeleton.asChildbooleanundefinedUses Radix Slot instead of a div element.
useQRCode(selector: (state: StoreState) => T) => TnullExported store hook for selecting internal generation state. It must be called inside QRCode and receives a selector for StoreState.

Accessibility

  • Provide a meaningful aria-label or other accessible name for QRCodeCanvas, because canvas has no intrinsic text alternative.
  • QRCodeImage defaults to alt="QR Code"; provide a more descriptive alt value when the encoded destination has meaningful context.
  • QRCodeDownload renders a real button with type="button" and supports normal button accessibility props such as aria-label and disabled.
  • QRCodeSvg injects generated SVG markup into a div and does not add an accessible name automatically; provide an accessible label or a nearby textual alternative.
  • Do not rely on color alone to distinguish the QR modules; maintain sufficient contrast between foregroundColor and backgroundColor.
  • An overlay can obscure QR modules and reduce scan reliability, so keep it small and test the resulting code with target scanners.
