# Laravel QR Code: QR Code Generation for Laravel Apps

> Generate SVG, PNG, WebP, and EPS QR codes in Laravel using a fluent facade, Blade component, or Artisan CLI — with built-in data types and macro support.

Laravel QR Code is a modern QR code generation package for Laravel 12+ and PHP 8.2+. This documentation covers everything from installation and configuration to advanced usage with the `QrCode` facade, Blade component, Artisan CLI, and built-in data types like WiFi, vCard, and more.

## Get Started in Three Steps

<Steps>
  <Step title="Install the package">
    Require the package via Composer and let Laravel auto-discover the service provider.

    ```bash theme={null}
    composer require linkxtr/laravel-qrcode
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step title="Publish the config file">
    Publish the configuration file to customise default format, size, and error correction level.

    ```bash theme={null}
    php artisan vendor:publish --tag=qrcode-config
    ```
  </Step>

  <Step title="Generate your first QR code">
    Use the facade, the Blade component, or the Artisan command — whichever fits your workflow.

    <CodeGroup>
      ```blade Blade Component theme={null}
      <x-qr-code value="https://example.com" size="300" />
      ```

      ```php Facade theme={null}
      use Linkxtr\QrCode\Facades\QrCode;

      $svg = QrCode::size(300)->generate('https://example.com');
      ```

      ```bash Artisan CLI theme={null}
      php artisan qr:generate "https://example.com"
      ```
    </CodeGroup>
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Laravel QR Code requires **PHP 8.2+** and **Laravel 12+**. Make sure your
  environment meets these requirements before installing.

  All output formats — SVG, PNG, WebP, and EPS — are available through the same
  fluent API. Chain `.format('png')` before `.generate()` to switch formats on
  the fly.
