An open-source, multi-format 1D/2D barcode image processing library implemented in Java, with ports to other languages.
What is Zxing AS3?
ZXing is an open-source barcode scanning library that enables applications to read and generate a wide variety of 1D and 2D barcode formats. It solves the problem of integrating reliable barcode processing functionality without relying on proprietary SDKs. The core library is implemented in Java, with a vast ecosystem of ports bringing this capability to nearly every major programming language and platform.
Developers building applications that require barcode scanning or generation, particularly those working on JVM (Java, Kotlin, Scala) or Android projects. It's also valuable for developers in other ecosystems (C++, .NET, Python, JavaScript) via its language ports.
Developers choose ZXing for its proven reliability, extensive format support, and permissive open-source license. Its primary value is providing a single, robust library that can be embedded to handle barcode processing across a vast number of platforms and use cases.
