Scan and style QR using html and css

Solution retrospective
I'm most proud of successfully creating a QR scanner using HTML and CSS, which is quite an achievement given the limitations of those languages for such functionality. I'm especially proud of the user interface design and the seamless integration of the scanner functionality. However, next time, I would consider incorporating JavaScript to enhance the scanner's functionality, allowing for more dynamic and interactive features.
What challenges did you encounter, and how did you overcome them?One major challenge I encountered was implementing the QR scanning functionality purely with HTML and CSS. HTML and CSS are primarily used for structuring and styling web pages, so integrating a complex feature like QR scanning was a significant hurdle. To overcome this challenge, I extensively researched and experimented with various CSS and HTML techniques, including the use of CSS animations and pseudo-elements to simulate the scanning effect. Additionally, I had to carefully optimize the design to ensure it worked smoothly across different browsers and devices.
What specific areas of your project would you like help with?While I'm proud of what I've accomplished with HTML and CSS, I recognize that incorporating JavaScript could greatly enhance the functionality and usability of the QR scanner. Specifically, I would appreciate help with implementing JavaScript-based QR code decoding and handling user interactions, such as providing feedback during the scanning process and displaying the scanned content. Additionally, guidance on optimizing the scanner's performance and improving compatibility with different QR code formats would be valuable.
