IronQR - Your C# QR Code Solution

Seamlessly generate, read, and enhance QR Codes in your .NET projects

IronQR is an advanced library crafted by Iron Software that equips C# developers with the ability to effortlessly generate, interpret, and augment QR Codes within .NET applications and websites using a sophisticated, custom-built Machine Learning model.

Begin Your Journey in Three Simple Steps

1. Install the NuGet Package

PM> Install-Package IronQR

2. Generate Your Initial QR Code

using IronQr;
using IronSoftware.Drawing;

// Generating a new QR Code
QrCode qrCode = QrWriter.Write("hello world"); // String value is embedded here
AnyBitmap qrImage = qrCode.Save(); // Converts to Bitmap, can export as bytes or file
qrImage.SaveAs("qr.png"); // Saving to file system

// Reading a QR Code
var qrScanner = new QrReader(settings: optionalQrReaderSettings); // Initializes the QR reader
IEnumerable<QrResult> scanResults = qrScanner.Read(new QrImageInput("image.jpg")); // Uses ML Model for detection and reading
IEnumerable<QrResult> asyncScanResults = await qrScanner.ReadAsync(new QrImageInput("image.jpg")); // Asynchronous read

// Enhancing QR Code creation
var enhancedOptions = new QrOptions(QrErrorCorrectionLevel.High, 20); // Sets advanced generation options

QrCode enhancedQr = QrWriter.Write("hello world", options: enhancedOptions); // Generates QR with specified options

var stylishQrSettings = new QrStyleOptions // Customize with logos, colors, and more
{
    Dimensions = 300, // Size in pixels
    Margins = 10, // Margin in pixels
    Color = Color.Black,
    Logo = new QrLogo
    {
        Bitmap = new AnyBitmap(new Uri("https://ironsoftware.com/image.svg")),
        Width = 50,
        Height = 50,
        CornerRadius = 2
    }
};
AnyBitmap qrStyled = enhancedQr.Save(stylishQrSettings);
qrStyled.SaveAs("qr_stylish.png");

Seamlessly Create, Read, and Personalize QR Codes in Your .NET Projects

IronQR is a product created and supported by Iron Software, designed to assist C# developers in identifying, interpreting, and generating QR Codes within .NET environments through an advanced, proprietary Machine Learning algorithm.

Begin Your Journey in Three Simple Steps

Kickstart your .NET project by integrating the capabilities of IronQR in just three concise steps:

1. Install the IronQR NuGet Package

PM> Install-Package IronQR

2. Generate and Read Your Initial QR Code

using IronQr;
using IronSoftware.Drawing;

// Generating a QR Code
QrCode myQr = QrWriter.Write("hello world"); // Input string to encode
AnyBitmap qrBitmap = myQr.Save(); // Generates a bitmap object
qrBitmap.SaveAs("qr.png"); // Saves the bitmap as a PNG file

// Scanning a QR Code
var qrReader = new QrReader(settings: optionalQrReaderSettings); // Initializes the reader with optional settings
IEnumerable<QrResult> results = qrReader.Read(new QrImageInput("image.jpg")); // Reads the QR Code from an image
IEnumerable<QrResult> asyncResults = await qrReader.ReadAsync(new QrImageInput("image.jpg")); // Asynchronous version of the read function

// Advanced QR Code Generation
var advancedOptions = new QrOptions(QrErrorCorrectionLevel.High, 20); // Set error correction level and version

QrCode advancedQr = QrWriter.Write("hello world", options: advancedOptions); // Create QR code with advanced options

var customQrSettings = new QrStyleOptions
{
    Dimensions = 300, // Resolution in pixels
    Margins = 10, // Margin size in pixels
    Color = Color.Black, // Color of the QR Code
    Logo = new QrLogo
    {
        Bitmap = new AnyBitmap(new Uri("https://ironsoftware.com/image.svg")), // URL to a logo image
        Width = 50, // Width of logo
        Height = 50, // Height of logo
        CornerRadius = 2 // Corner radius of the logo
    }
};
AnyBitmap qrStyled = advancedQr.Save(customQrSettings);
qrStyled.SaveAs("qr_custom.png"); // Save the styled QR code to a file
