## What it is
A plug-and-play QR code scanner component for React Native, built on top of react-native-camera, that also works as a generic barcode scanner. The project has been archived and its maintainers recommend migrating to react-native-vision-camera with the vision-camera-code-scanner plugin.

## Use cases
- scan QR codes in a React Native app
- add a barcode scanner to a mobile app
- read QR codes from the device camera
- plug-and-play QR scanning component with minimal setup
- scan QR codes on iOS and Android with one component

## When to choose
- maintaining a legacy React Native app that already uses this library
- you need a quick QR scanner on an older React Native version

## When to avoid
- starting a new React Native project needing QR scanning
- you want actively maintained camera/scanner support
- you need modern React Native architecture compatibility
