Runtime-agnostic 1D barcode generation for seven symbologies — Code 128B, Code 39, EAN-13, EAN-8, UPC-A, UPC-E, and ITF. Outputs inline SVG strings and binary bar-pattern arrays with no canvas, no DOM, and no Node.js built-ins required, making it safe to use in Bun, Deno, edge runtimes, and browsers alike. Includes check-digit calculation, barcode validation, and human-readable text rendering. Use this package to generate product labels, shipping labels (ITF/GTIN-14), retail barcodes (EAN/UPC), and document barcodes (Code 128). For 2D barcodes (QR codes) use @suaveplan/qrcode.
