QR Codes

Can we:

Read, write, display and store QR codes with a Spider Basic Web App?
Can that Web App reside on both Android and IOS devices and be run by the device browser? (i.e. not as mobile apps)

Google recently added a lot of security measures, Android 10 and up basically sandbox Apps (similar to Apple IOS I think). Now, there are only two directories an App can use. Th...

Re: Module: Blockly

Phew - that's a fast and comprehensive response, thank you Peter. I was wondering if it could not be done with blockly API, I could do it via the DOM and find each elements scroll position, but a blockly approach is preferable. Thanks again!

Re: Module: Blockly

Hello Peter There are a number of online IDEs based on Blockly, I am using MIT's App Inventor to create Android Apps - it's very good.
