Barcode Components for JavaScript, Angular, React, and Vue
We have added new barcode components for creating 26 types of barcodes from QR Codes to UPC barcodes. Barcodes represent data in a visual, but machine-readable way. They are used around the world to share and track information. Wijmo barcodes are rendered entirely in JavaScript and require no server-side dependency.
We have introduced a set of new modules that include these barcode components:
- wijmo.barcode (shared code)
- wijmo.barcode.common (popular barcode types including: Codabar, Code39, Code128, EAN, GS1_128, QRCode, UPC)
- wijmo.barcode.composite (popular composite types including: GS1_DataBar, PDF417)
- wijmo.barcode.specialized (less common types including: Code49, Code93, Interleaved2of5, ITF-14, JapanesePostal, DataMatrix)
Let's take a look at each of the new barcode components.
