Yahor Radtsevich commented on JBIDE-13984:
------------------------------------------

A nice feature to have in BrowserSim (if it will be just click and see). But in another places, like Eclipse Project Explorer, it will be too hard to get the right URL from a file name.

> It is tedious to type in url's, especially ones with just ip numbers on mobile devices thus we should provide a way to make this easy.
> Usecases:
>   * You are developing on your machine and want to test on your own physical phone
>   * You are presenting at a conference and want your audience to visit your website running in cloud or on the local network
> Suggestions:
>   Provide a way to show the QR code for a URL in the following locations:
>     * Browser and CordovaSim
>     * Provide "Show In > QR Coded URL" for an app/module 
>     * Command that will take what is in clipboard/typed in and show the QR code   
>  
> In some cases there might be more than multiple possible urls to use - i.e. you are setup to use http://localhost:8080 but that is not going to help anyone trying to connect thus should make it easy to adjust the host part so you can type in the real host.
