QR Code Component

A responsive QR code component built with HTML and CSS.

What it demonstrates

The card is a single div inside <main>. <section> was considered and rejected — the page has one part, not several, and <section> would misrepresent that.

Colors and font weights are set as CSS custom properties on :root, scoped to the values that actually vary between elements rather than wrapping everything in a variable.

The card's width is 90% with max-width: 320px, so it scales down on small screens and caps out on larger ones. The QR image is width: 100%, so it always tracks the card's width.

Padding uses rem rather than %% padding is calculated from the parent's width even for top/bottom spacing, which would make vertical spacing shift with screen width for no reason.

<main> is set to display: contents. Found by adding a debug outline to every element and seeing that <main>'s default box was adding extra space on one side of the card. display: contents removes that box from the layout — so the card becomes a direct flex child of <body> and centers correctly — while keeping <main> in the document for accessibility and structure.

Google Fonts is loaded with preconnect hints, so the browser opens the connection to the font server while the rest of the document is still being parsed.
