Latest developments on inventaire.io: - The entity editor got a navigation menu (visible only on large screens for now), as well as more subcategories - We are now using a new barcode scanner engine, so if you were part of the people having troubles with the previous one, there are good chances that it&#39;s now fixed! - It&#39;s now possible to search a book by scanning its barcode, with this new button in the top bar #inventaireio #wikidata #books #livres

Implementation details: - Entity editor menu https://codeberg.org/inventaire/inventaire-client/pulls/565 - Barcode scanner, using a ponyfill of the (incoming 🤞 ) Barcode Detection web standard, based on zxing-wasm https://codeberg.org/inventaire/inventaire-client/pulls/566 #svelte #zxing #wasm

@inventaire@mamot.fr Also, for quick book inventory or cataloging via an external Android phone: Check out hid-barcode-scanner, which turns your phone into a plug-and-play wireless scanner. * Purpose: Scan a book's barcode and send data to inventaire.io without drivers or extra software. * Tech: Uses Bluetooth HID (Android 9+) to mimic a standard hardware keyboard. * Open Source: Licensed under GPL-3.0. Another great way to scan books without using a webcam or buying hardware. https://github.com/Fabi019/hid-barcode-scanner
