-[quaggaJS](https://github.com/serratus/quaggaJS) | QuaggaJS is a barcode-scanner entirely written in JavaScript supporting real-time localization and decoding of various types of barcodes such as EAN, CODE 128, CODE 39, EAN 8, UPC-A, UPC-C, I2of5 and CODABAR. The library is also capable of using `getUserMedia` to get direct access to the user's camera stream. Although the code relies on heavy image- processing even recent smartphones are capable of locating and decoding barcodes in real-time. | For reading barcodes with a webcam or phone camera. See also [JSBarcode](https://github.com/lindell/JsBarcode) for _generating_ barcodes.
