Would like to know the zxing support video stream but this scanner uses react-webcam

Thanks for very useful component in react for barcode scanning using zxing.

I couldn't find answers why react-webcam used when zxing already support video stream.

The same mentioned by Adam Alfredsson in his blog

This is an interesting point, it might be nice to explore using this solution in this package and ditching react-webcam. As to why, this package was forked from a deprecated (and older) package, and possibly at the time zxing didn't have that capability.
