How to use it?
FAQ
There are lot of other packages. Why did you created this one?
I have used and tested several in production but none of them was able to give me results what I wanted which was accurate results and multiple QR scanning in image. So, I created this one and used python in it as it was more mature and accurate libraries for this use case.
Will you regularly update this library?
Yes. I will be keeping tabs on this one.
I found a bug what should I do?
Create a new issue. I will take a look at it.
I don't want to use your package. What other option do I have?
Several actually. all comes with it's own pros and cons
- qr-scanner A web based QR code scanner
- QRCodeScanner another web based QR code scanner ported from Java
- jsQR this one can be used as both as node package and also as a web based node package
