Feature description
The purpose is to make it easier to log in on another device by adding a QR Code.
The idea is, when generating a temporary code, to add that QR Code in the popup showing the URL with the one time code.
You can then simply scan it with your other device to be logged in.
Pitch
I’ve installed pocket-id for my home and installed passkey on each computer for all family member and then repeat the operation on their phone.
Instead of typing the code on a new device, it would be much easier to scan an URL to then create a passkey.

Im adding the needs more upvotes label to this for now, @stonith404 I see some value to this, but what are your thoughts?
@mzgaljic commented on GitHub (Apr 12, 2025):
I don't have a strong opinion on this feature, but isn't this provided out of the box by most passkey providers? I guess I'm curious which scenarios are not already covered, mostly for my own education...
Examples:

I’m using Bitwarden which doesn’t have that behavior.
My idea here is to make it easier to login via code.
So, for example, when you create a new user (which doesn’t have any passkey configured yet), you could simply display the QR code which she/he can scan with its phone to then add a passkey.

Today I learned. This feature sounds like a good idea!
@paulgreg commented on GitHub (Apr 12, 2025):
I can try to open a pull request if that’s ok with you (I have no experience with svelte but I can try 😅)
@mzgaljic commented on GitHub (Apr 12, 2025):
oh I'm not a maintainer, just a curious pocket-id user. :)
@kmendell commented on GitHub (Apr 12, 2025):
Sure, We are open for PR's :)
@paulgreg commented on GitHub (Apr 12, 2025):
I’m having trouble setting up the project. Is there a space (like discord) do discuss about it ?
@kmendell commented on GitHub (Apr 12, 2025):
there is a discord yes, create a new issue, and the. you'll see see the discord link just click that instead of creating a issue, otherwise the discord link is on our website as well.
