Simple Barcode Generator using PHP/JavaScript

The Simple Barcode Generator project is a free source code for everyone. To develop this project, I used HTML, PHP, JavaScript (Ajax / jQuery), and Bootstrap. Also, I use the PICQER BARCODE PHP library for the generation of a barcode image. The bar code is commonly used for product identification for inventory and sales, but you can also use it for any purpose basically for fast identification for your system using the barcode scanner or reader device.
