Generate QR codes, Wi-Fi QR codes and barcodes from a URL (no library needed)

Sometimes you just need a QR code in an email, a PDF ticket or a no-code tool, and you don't want to bundle a library. With QRKit it's one GET request, and you get back a PNG or SVG.

                   params={"data": "https://example.com", "size": 300, "format": "png"}, headers=H).content
