🎨 Styling & Customization

Responsive Design

import React from 'react'
import { ReactQrCode } from '@devmehq/react-qr-code'

function ResponsiveQRCode() {
  return (
    <div style={{ width: '100%', maxWidth: '400px' }}>
      <ReactQrCode
        value="https://your-website.com"
        size={256}
        style={{ width: '100%', height: 'auto' }}
      />
    </div>
  )
}

Dark Mode Support

import React from 'react'
import { ReactQrCode } from '@devmehq/react-qr-code'

function DarkModeQRCode({ isDarkMode }) {
  return (
    <ReactQrCode
      value="https://your-website.com"
      bgColor={isDarkMode ? '#1f2937' : '#ffffff'}
      fgColor={isDarkMode ? '#f3f4f6' : '#000000'}
    />
  )
}

Custom CSS Classes

import React from 'react'
import { ReactQrCode } from '@devmehq/react-qr-code'
import './styles.css'

function CustomStyledQRCode() {
  return (
    <ReactQrCode
      value="https://your-website.com"
      className="qr-code-custom"
      size={300}
    />
  )
}

/* styles.css */
.qr-code-custom {
  border-radius: 16px;
  box-shadow: 0 4px 6px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1);
  padding: 16px;
  background: linear-gradient(135deg, #667eea 0%, #764ba2 100%);
}

Note: When using renderAs="canvas" on high-density displays, the canvas is scaled for pixel-perfect rendering. Custom styles are merged with internal scaling styles.
