## What it is
BarcodeScanner is a Swift library for iOS that provides a ready-made, customizable view controller for scanning barcodes with the device camera. It handles camera authorization, animated focus views, torch mode, and multiple scanning states with no external dependencies.

## Use cases
- scan barcodes in my ios app
- add a qr code scanner view controller to swift project
- handle camera permission prompts during barcode scanning
- customize the barcode scanner ui colors and messages
- scan product codes to look up items

## When to choose
- you need a polished, drop-in barcode scanning UI for an iOS app
- you want camera authorization handling and scanning states out of the box
- you prefer a dependency-free Swift/UIKit component

## When to avoid
- you need barcode scanning on Android or cross-platform
- you need VisionKit/AVFoundation-level customization or metadata output
- you need active development or guaranteed updates
