Welcome to the ScanForTheFuture Android QR Application project! This open-source initiative aims to develop a state-of-the-art QR code scanner app that generates revenue through in-app advertisements and purchases. The proceeds will be directed towards social good, focusing on environmental protection, education, and supporting disadvantaged communities.
Scan For The Future aims to be a technologically modern and socially responsible mobile QR solution. Developed with React Native and compatible with Expo Go, this app provides fast QR scanning and creation tools, while contributing to a better world.
