Module features and usage

This module defines not just one but 9 new fields for
generating QR codes, including for URLs, vCards, MeCards,
Events, and more

Each field QR accepts inputs based on the associated
information that should be exposed. So a URL QR Code field
only accepts an input for the URL destination, while an Event
QR Code has inputs for a summary, description, location,
start, and end.

The module also provides a custom block plugin for each
type of QR code, to make it easier to display your QR codes
wherever you need for your specific use case

The QR Code Fields module also defines a service for
generating QR code images, which could also be useful for
more custom implementations.
