Existing plugins and code for generating QR code images for articles online have three shortcomings:

1. They rely on external APIs, such as Google API or third-party QR code generation platforms;
2. They do not support WooCommerce product pages;
3. They add an additional HTTP request.

The Qr Code Composer introduced in this article perfectly solves these three problems.

• Qr Code Composer is based on QRious and does not require calling the Google API, so users in China can also use it with confidence.
• Qr Code Composer can also generate QR code images on WooCommerce product pages.
• Qr Code Composer's images are loaded with the HTML code using Base64 encoding, eliminating an extra HTTP request.

Base64 encoding is an image processing format that encodes an image into a long string through a specific algorithm. When displaying on a page, this string can be used instead of the image's URL attribute.
