The Challenge
Understanding the problem space and identifying key obstacles.
Sharing a Wi-Fi password is a small, universal annoyance, and most QR code generators that solve it are cluttered, ad heavy, or quietly send your details to a server. They also tend to look generic, which is the opposite of what you want stuck on the wall of a tasteful cafe, rental, or home.
The goal was a free tool that was actually a pleasure to use, beautiful enough that people would want to print and display the result, private enough to trust with a password, and good enough to double as a portfolio piece for Href Creative.
A free, private, and properly handsome way to welcome guests to your network.
The Solution
Our approach to solving the challenge through design and technology.
We built PrettyWifi as a focused, single purpose tool that does one thing exceptionally well, then made it private by default.
How we built it
- ✓
A real design range: Two dozen hand-designed poster styles, so the finished QR poster fits the space it lives in, from a minimalist studio to a maximalist bar.
- ✓
Private by architecture: The network name and password are encoded entirely in the browser. Nothing is stored, and nothing is sent to a server.
- ✓
No friction: No account, no email gate, and no paywall. A guest fills in two fields and gets a print ready poster in seconds.
- ✓
Print perfect output: The posters are laid out for clean printing, so the QR code scans reliably straight off the page.

Performance That Matters
Built for speed and optimized for every device. Real metrics from real users.
PrettyWifi is something people reach for on whatever device is nearby, so it had to feel effortless on a phone as well as a laptop.
Responsive and instant The form and live poster preview adapt to small screens without losing clarity, and results update the moment you type.
Lightweight by default Because the work happens client side, there is no round trip to a server to generate a poster, which keeps the whole experience quick and responsive.
Accessible and clear Clean typography and high contrast layouts keep the tool easy to read and use, and the privacy promise is stated plainly right where it matters.
Measurable Impact
Hand-designed templates, from quiet minimalism to bold maximalism.
Network details are encoded in the browser and never sent to a server.
