A lightweight, framework-independent PHP library that generates 1D barcodes (Code 128, EAN-13, UPC, Code 39, etc.) as SVG, PNG, JPG, or HTML output. It has zero composer dependencies and only supports 1D barcode standards, not 2D codes like QR.
Use cases
- generate barcode images in php
- create ean13 barcode png for product labels
- render code128 barcode as svg in a web page
- generate upc barcodes without framework dependencies
- add barcode generation to an invoice or shipping label system
- output barcode as html for browser display
When to choose
- you need 1D barcodes (Code 128, EAN, UPC, Code 39, etc.) in a PHP project

- you need SVG or HTML output with no system requirements, or PNG/JPG via GD/Imagick
When to avoid
- you need 2D barcodes like QR codes
- you need text rendered below the barcode bars
