Create a QR Code Scanner or Reader in HTML CSS & JavaScript

Last Updated : 26 Jul, 2024

In this article, we will see how we can implement a QR Code Scanner with the help of HTML CSS & JavaScript. A QR code scanner will provide the user with two options to scan the QR code either by uploading the image file of the URL to be scanned or by using the camera of your system to scan the QR code and decode it. This application will show you an alert message with the decoded text of the QR code.

Preview: Approach

Create a project folder with the project name and three files for HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Inside the HTML file, the structure of the website will be defined using HTML tags like div, input, heading, etc.
Now, use the CSS styling properties to make the page more attractive and good-looking.
Use JavaScript to implement the basic interaction operations like adding events, setting timeouts, etc.
After that, include the below CDN link to your HTML document to implement the html5-qrcode library to scan the QR.

<script src="https://unpkg.com/html5-qrcode"></script>

HTML5-qrcode library methods:

Html5QrcodeScanner: Initializes the QR code scanner.
render(): Renders the scanner within a specified HTML element.
onScanSuccess(decodeText, decodeResult): A callback function triggered upon successful QR code scanning, displaying decoded text in an alert.
fps: Sets the frames per second for video capture.
qrbos: Sets the QR code detection boundary size.

Example: This example shows the implementation of the QR code scanner or Reader.
