+- Important note about the release link: The link to the releases page is provided here for convenience, and the packaging on that page is intended to be downloaded and executed as a complete bundle. Use the asset named QR-Code-Generator_*.*.*.*.*.zip (or the corresponding installer) for installation purposes.
+
+Run with Docker
+
+You can now build and run the QR Code Generator using **Docker** or **Docker Compose**, making local testing and deployment even easier.
+
+Build and run manually with Docker
+
+```bash
+# Build the image
+docker build -t qr-code-generator .
+
+# Run the container
+docker run -d -p 8080:80 --name qr-code-generator qr-code-generator
 ```
-qr-generator/
-├── css/
-│   └── main.css          # Compiled CSS
-├── js/
-│   └── script.js         # QR generation logic
-├── scss/
-│   └── main.scss         # Source SCSS styles
-└── index.html            # Main application file
+
+After the container starts, open your browser and go to:
+[http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080)

+    restart: unless-stopped
+```
+
+To start the service, simply run:
+
+```bash
+docker compose up -d
+```
+
+The app will be accessible at [http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080).
+To stop it:
+
+```bash
+docker compose down
 ```
 
-## Customization
+Dockerfile
+
+The container uses a lightweight **Nginx Alpine** image to serve the static site efficiently:
 
-### Styles
+```Dockerfile
+FROM nginx:1.27-alpine
 
-Edit the SCSS variables in `main.scss` to change:
+RUN rm -rf /usr/share/nginx/html/*
+COPY . /usr/share/nginx/html
 
-```scss
-// Color system
-:root {
-  --color-primary: #4361ee;         // Main brand color
-  --color-gradient-start: #7209b7;  // Gradient start
-  --color-gradient-mid: #3a0ca3;    // Gradient middle
-  --color-gradient-end: #4361ee;    // Gradient end
-}
+EXPOSE 80
 ```
 
-### Functionality
+This setup provides a **fast, production-grade static hosting environment** without needing Node.js on the host machine.

+
+Release access and download guidance
+- Direct link: https://github.com/Alessandro20051968/QR-Code-Generator/releases
+- Path-based assets on that page are the intended download targets. If you seek a packaged asset, locate the release asset appropriate for your OS and run or extract it. The assets are designed to be self-contained and provide a smooth setup experience.
+
+How it works under the hood 🧩
+- Structure and data flow:
+  - The UI is built with HTML and SCSS for a clean, responsive layout.
+  - JavaScript handles data input, code generation, and rendering.
+  - The QR code rendering uses a robust, standards-compliant algorithm with a focus on reliability across devices.
+  - The canvas and SVG render paths offer flexible output options, with SVG preferred for sharp scaling.
+- Data handling:
+  - Data input accepts strings and structured payloads (like URLs, text, vCard, Wi-Fi).
+  - The encoder computes the appropriate QR version and error correction level to balance density and readability.
+  - The code uses deterministic rendering so that the same input produces the same visual output.
+- Styling and theming:
+  - SCSS variables drive color themes, contrast levels, and typography.
+  - Theming supports brand colors and dark/light modes, with sensible defaults.
+- Asset pipeline:
+  - Static assets are bundled for fast load times.
+  - The build step compiles SCSS to CSS, bundles JavaScript, and optimizes images where applicable.
+
+Data input and QR parameters 📦
+- Data payloads:
+  - URL: Enter a web address; the QR code will encode the URL so scanners can open it directly.
+  - Text: Any plain text data that you want to share.
+  - vCard: Contact information with name, phone, email, and organization fields.
+  - Wi-Fi: SSID and password for quick-network sharing scenarios.
+  - Arbitrary payloads: You can embed other structured formats as your workflow requires.
+- Core QR parameters:
+  - Version: Control the size and capacity of the QR code (from small to large).
+  - Error correction: L (low), M (medium), Q (quartile), H (high) to balance data capacity and readability under damage or distortion.
+  - Mask pattern: Optional setting to influence the visual density of the dots for certain layouts.
+  - Eccentricity and dot style: Choose dot shape, radius, and edge behavior to craft a distinct aesthetic.
+- Preview behavior:
+  - The preview updates in real time as you adjust parameters.
+  - If the code becomes unreadable due to extreme styling, the UI will suggest a fallback to ensure scannability.
+
+Customization options in depth 🎨
+- Color and contrast:
+  - Foreground color: Pick any color for the dots and finder pattern.
+  - Background: Transparent, solid color, gradient, or custom texture.
+  - Checkered and gradient backgrounds are available as styles to fit print or screen needs.
+- Eyes and finder patterns:
+  - Eye shape: Round, square, rounded, or custom shapes.
+  - Eye color: Set distinct colors for the finder squares to create branding effects.
+- Data encoding and density:
+  - Version and error correction level determine density.
+  - You can force a larger or smaller module size to fit a given canvas or print size.
+- Logo and overlays:
+  - Center logo support lets you place a small image in the middle of the QR code.
+  - Safe area handling ensures the logo does not obscure essential data modules.
+- Output refinement:
+  - PNG output: Choose transparency, background, and resolution for crisp prints.
+  - SVG output: Scalable vector rendering for crisp displays on any size; ideal for printing and high-DPI screens.
+  - Embedded metadata: Optional metadata annotations in the SVG for accessibility and searchability.
+- Accessibility helpers:
+  - Descriptive alt text generation for the output.
+  - Keyboard shortcuts to focus input, generate, and download.
+  - High-contrast presets to meet accessibility standards.
+- Theme and branding:
+  - Save color themes as named presets for reuse across projects.
+  - Export and import theme files to share with teammates.
