allow sharing the board as a QR Code

Open elearningdienst opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

It would be great to automated generate shortlinks and qr codes from the random URL.

UseCase:

  • QR Code can be used to integrate in printed worksheets.
  • QR Code can be displayed via beamer / TV in the classromm or meetingroom and used to allow pupils/users to use their mobile device for a collaborative session
  • Shortlinks can be used in printed worksheets or chats as well (if you cant use a mobile device)

Possibilities:

  • Use the yourls API (if one uses a yourls server) https://yourls.org/ can automate both the shortlink and the qr code.
  • Use a qrcode generator e.g. https://www.npmjs.com/package/qrcode

yourls example:

https://eldshort.de/j0hhwy

add .qr to shortlink to get an qrcode image ![](https://eldshort.de/j0hhwy.qr)

I'm not a programmer, but I'm willing to test. Furthermore I can provide a yourls server for testing.

and connect to self-hosted url shortner like yourls or polr, to create smaller qr codes
