It seems like it might just be iOS and built-in functionality for the iPhone
and iPad.

But there was a comment in that discussion that made me think. I suppose we
could scan the barcode and send it to a Koha API for processing...

It looks like there's a Perl library that hooks into a C library that could
work very well: https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/libbarcode-zbar-perl

I think that this is likely to be much more effective than using a Javascript
library. I've had mixed results with Javascript libraries. 

We still have a library using the Scandit integration we did locally, so I
don't think I'm likely to work on this again soon, but that would be my
suggestion to someone else.
