QR Code Maker! Extension

Since recently QR codes are more and more useful (for example restaurants and bars want these codes to display their menus without them being consulted by hand), I decided to develop a Chrome Extension in HTML, CSS3 and JavaScript.
To generate the codes I used an API provided by the website http://goqr.me

From the HTML form you can write what you want to encode, and also set the size by typing just one side in pixels!

This Chrome extension is my CS50 Final Project.
