:cd: Quick Response (QR) Code Version 2 Utility

This is an implementation of a QR code utility used for generating QR codes given some ascii text input by the user.

:hammer: Current Progress

This implementation is using the imgui library to visualize QR codes. Currently the subset of the QR code version 2 specification produced are as follows:

• Those spaces which are required for orientation.
• The data type (Numeric, Alpha-Numeric, Binary, and Japanese Kanji).
• The size of the message to be encoded.

Here is the current interface of the program:

• gl1-mesa
• glfw3
• sdl2
• gtest
• tl/expected

To install these with the apt package manager:

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade
sudo apt install libgl1-mesa-dev libglfw3-dev libsdl2-dev libgtest-dev libexpected-dev

To build the project you execute the following commands in bash:

# to get the imgui submodule
git submodule update --init --recursive
mkdir build
cd build
# if you do not want to build the tests you can put put the flag:
# -DBUILD_TESTS=OFF
cmake ..
make
