• Exact sizing and margins

Smart Filename Generation

Downloaded QR codes automatically get meaningful filenames:

• qrcode_example.com.png for domain names
• qrcode_firefox.png for other content

Accessibility

• Full keyboard navigation support
• Screen reader compatible
• High contrast mode support
• Proper ARIA labels and descriptions
