How to support QR code scanning feature

XBrowser does not have a built-in QR code scanning feature like most browser applications, and the authors believe that in 80% of cases users do not need a QR code scanning feature in the browser, so there is no need to add extra overhead for a feature that is not used in most cases.

For users who really need this feature we can make X Browser support QR code scanning by installing a QR code scanning plugin. Here’s how to install and use the QR code scanning extension.
