Step # 1 : Create fresh Laravel project or use an existing Laravel project.
Two commands to create fresh Laravel project.
Global Command : laravel new qrcode
Or use
Non Global Command : composer create-project laravel/laravel --prefer-dist qrcode
Step # 2 : Access the project.
Open a terminal (e.g., Git Bash) and navigate to your Laravel project's root folder.
Git Bash : cd c:xampp/htdocs/qrcode
Run the Laravel Vite development server. Install the required dependencies and start the Vite server for front-end assets.
Command : npm install && npm run dev
Open a new Git Bash window or tab, and navigate to the same project directory to run further Laravel commands.
Step # 3 : Install qrcode package.
Command : composer require simplesoftwareio/simple-qrcode "~1"
Step # 4 : Publish the configuration (Optional)
Command : php artisan vendor:publish --provider="SimpleSoftwareIO\QrCode\QrCodeServiceProvider"
Step # 5 : Create controller.
Command : php artisan make:controller QrCodeController
Make a method named index to return a view.
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class QrCodeController extends Controller
{
public function index()
{
return view('qrcode');
}
}
Step # 6 : Create a view.
In order to display the Qr Code create a view named qrcode.blade.php.
(resources/views/qrcode.blade.php)

Step # 7 : Create a route.
Import QrCodeController class
use App\Http\Controllers\QrCodeController;
Create a route
Route::get('/qr', [QrCodeController::class, 'index']);
Step # 8 : It's time to test.
Run the Laravel server.
Command : php artisan serve
Access url 127.0.0.0:8000/qr
