QRdx vs goQR.me

goQR.me is one of the simplest ways to make a QR code: type your content, pick colors, download. It is free for static codes, allows commercial and print use, and offers vector downloads (SVG and EPS) without registration. It also runs a QR code API that returns an image from a URL, which is handy in emails or server templates. QRdx is for when you want the code to look designed, or want to render it inside your own React app.

Who each tool is for

goQR.me fits anyone who needs a plain, reliable code fast, especially if they want EPS files or an image URL they can drop into an img tag. Editable, trackable codes are offered separately through its QR-Server management platform.

QRdx fits designers who want patterns, gradients, logos and frames, people who need editable codes with scan analytics, and developers who want a component or an image API they can style and ship.

Where goQR.me is the better choice

• You want the plainest possible code with nothing to configure.

Key differences

• Design: goQR.me changes colors; QRdx changes shapes, colors and gradients, and adds logos and frames.
• Logo: goQR.me handles custom logo codes on request through a separate page. QRdx lets you upload a logo in the editor.
• Integration: goQR.me integrates over HTTP. QRdx has a hosted image API too (SVG, PNG or EPS), plus a React library with TypeScript types, a CLI and an MCP server.
• Editable codes: goQR.me offers them through QR-Server. QRdx has dynamic codes built in: 10 on the Free plan and unlimited on Pro ($5/mo or $48/yr).

Switching from goQR.me

1. Paste the same content into the QRdx playground. Your existing static codes keep working, so nothing needs replacing.
2. Style the code and save the look as a theme.
3. Developers: run npm install qrdx and render the QRCode component with the same value. The docs cover props for patterns, colors and logos.
4. Test the result on a few phones, especially with a logo or low-contrast colors.
