A command-line tool that generates QR codes containing Wi-Fi network login details for easy sharing and connection.
Wi-Fi QR Code Generator is a command-line utility that creates QR codes containing Wi-Fi network credentials (SSID, password, encryption type). It solves the problem of manually sharing Wi-Fi passwords by generating scannable codes that allow devices to connect automatically when scanned with a QR reader.
System administrators, developers, and anyone who needs to share Wi-Fi access with multiple users or devices without revealing plain-text passwords.
It provides a simple, standardized way to share Wi-Fi credentials securely through QR codes, works across Android and iOS platforms, and offers both command-line and interactive modes for flexibility.

Works with both Android and iOS devices using Google Lens or other QR readers, as explicitly stated in the description and README, ensuring broad usability.
Prompts for missing information if not provided via command-line arguments, making it flexible and user-friendly for ad-hoc use without memorizing flags.
Supports WPA2, WPA, WEP, and open networks, covering a wide range of Wi-Fi encryption types as detailed in the flags description.
Offers clean command-line flags for SSID, password, output, and size, with a help flag that provides clear documentation, as shown in the usage section.
Being CLI-only, it requires terminal knowledge, which can be a barrier for users unfamiliar with command-line tools or those seeking a point-and-click solution.
Only supports PNG format and basic size adjustments via the --size flag; lacks advanced features like color changes, logos, or error correction settings mentioned in the README.
Generates one-time QR code images without built-in functionality for updating credentials or integrating into dynamic applications, limiting use in automated workflows.
