Today I was having fun with an awesome service called Barcode Generator by Tec-IT
I though, why I don't make an app for it? So... here it is.
It sound great but it's not that complicated.
You need to learn the parameters of the URL, that's it.
I putted some references to Tec-IT since they provide it basically for free and that's what they deserve.
It's under my portfolio (premiered today, yay!) and also here is a direct link to it:
Hope you like it and helps you to solve the mysteries of QR generation and the like
Nice!! Personally, I don't have a great need for such codes but I will save this app in case I decide I need a CR code. I was impressed that you even have Japanese postal codes (I live in Japan)!
I really think AppSheet should integrate excellent user-created sample apps (templates) like this one with those officially published by AppSheet. @peterdykstra , I think we've discussed this before and, if I'm not mistaken, you indicated that better utilization and promotion of user-generated content was something that you were already considering. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find that discussion.
@GreenFlux and I have discussed this in the past here:

This was part of a thread started by @tony1 on sample apps.
That's very kind, thanks @Kirk_Masden !

It's an awesome service, isn't it? All credits to Tec-IT for that.
I just scratched the surface, there are at least double the amount of codes available!
Nice looking , ideal demo/sample app @SkrOYC
Thanks @Suvrutt_Gurjar, I tried to apply the KIS rule on this one. Also the red color is from the Tec-IT brand 😉 so I just copied the color
@SkrOYC Useful and very nice Oscar 🙂
I’ll integrate it almost as is, and would like to give you reference. Please send me your email in a DM so that I put it in the app.
Hi @Joseph_Seddik. If you which you could just point to the sample app or my GCC profile.
Also I encourage to give credits to Tec-IT for the service:
You may use this barcode generator as part of your non-commercial web-application or web-site to create barcodes, QR codes and other 2D codes with your own data. In return, we ask you to implement a back-link with the text "TEC-IT Barcode Generator" on your web-site.
I will, thank you!
BTW, for anyone interested on just QR Codes but of various types of info, Tec-IT also has an API for that:
For example, you could create vCards if your app has employes or people in general by:
CONCATENATE(
"https://qrcode.tec-it.com/API/QRCode?data=",
ENCODEURL(
CONCATENATE(
"BEGIN:VCARD
VERSION:2.1
N:", [Name],"
TEL;HOME;VOICE:", [Personal],"
TEL;WORK;VOICE:", [Work],"
EMAIL:", [Email],"
ORG:", [Company],"
TITLE:", [Profession],"
BDAY:", TEXT([BirthDay], "YYYYMMDD"),"
URL:", [Website],"
END:VCARD&backcolor=#", [BackgroundColor]
)
)
)
Hi @SkrOYC do you know a way how to add margins to the Barcode?
You use this Barcode Generator:
https://barcode.tec-it.com/barcode.ashx?data=123456&code=Code39
This gives an output without margins:
This generator gives an output with margins:
https://www.webarcode.com/barcode/image.php?code=1123456&type=C39&xres=1&height=50&width=200&font=2&...
But it does a check if I'm human before opening the image, so this generator is no more usable with AppSheet.

Thank you so much @SkrOYC
I see that it works also without the "qunit" parameter. So this is working also:
https://barcode.tec-it.com/barcode.ashx?data=123456&code=Code39&quiet=7
I just found that we can play around with all parameters using the "Settings" on the upper right. Font size, Background Color, etc.
