You can try out the working example. Remember, it's multi-player, so be nice!

Today I learnt some QR scanners (google lens) struggle/fail with inverted QR codes and generally a lot of scanners scan non inverted QR codes faster.

Also CSS is awesome:

backdrop-filter: blur(5px)

If you've read this far. There's a bug in the qr code conversion function. 0.01 internet points if you can find it. Also congratulations you can read lisp.🤣

Here's the code to convert the QR Codes to SVG.

Had a load of fun at Maker Gonna Make Dundee. Ended up making a location share QR code (after spending a morning messing with quadkeys).

The codes are generated on the server, converted to SVG and then morphed in to DOM via SSE (using #Datastar). They compress nicely too.

Why TCP slow start makes minification matter. 300ms slower when going from a 10kb to 18kb ( #Datastar unminified), both with brotli level 11. What's worse this is on a good connection if it was 3G with higher packet loss the difference would be even larger.

Anders Murphy @andersmurphy.bsky.social · Jun 19

In the first frame most of the work is done closing the compressor (somethings not quite right, either in user land or the library implementation). In the second frame (a different library) there's no such close overhead. 5X faster reads. Another win for performance profiling.
