rgb() instead of hex
Inside a data URI, # acts as a fragment marker and would cut off the inner page — that is why a spread writes every color as rgb().
wikey®SPREAD
An entire website in one QR code
Scanning does not redirect you — it hands you the document itself, rendered locally by your browser from the code.

Paper is the data center.
The principle: scan → shell → spread
A scan first opens the outer shell — a minimalist document with two doors: ENTER SPREAD leads to the inner page, VISIT SPONSOR to the sponsor's page. Both layers live in the same code.

The code in detail
<!doctype html><meta charset='utf-8'>
<body style='margin:0;background:rgb(22,22,22);color:rgb(255,255,255)'>
<h1 style='color:rgb(255,40,127)'>Demo-Spread</h1>
<a style='color:rgb(0,204,255)' href='…'>VISIT SPONSOR</a>Two kinds of quotes
Single outside, double inside — the nested shell stays valid without escaping a single character.
- rgb(22,22,22)Background
- rgb(255,40,127)Titles + hover
- rgb(0,204,255)Links
Limits and optimization
- ≈2.700
- Practical ceiling — tuned for scanners
- ≈2.953 B
- QR version 40 with error correction
The difference is headroom: for older scanners, special characters and calm read heads.
characters
Strip whitespace & comments
Every space costs modules in the code. Whatever the browser does not need gets cut.
CSS shorthands
margin:0 instead of four separate values — shorthands save dozens of characters per rule.
Inline instead of stylesheet
A separate <style> block costs tags and structure; a few targeted inline styles are smaller.
Field note: print with waterproof pigment ink — your spread will survive the rain.
Network: wikey®SPREAD meets wikey®IMS
A spread is a piece of paper you hand to someone — and at the same time a website that works everywhere.
A ring of 80 copies: keep one, hand out the rest. Each card points to the next — like the interlinked pages of the early web. next spread
