• javascript
• node.js
• node-modules

• 3 What fingerprint scanner hardware are you using? – AKX Commented Jul 28, 2018 at 14:23
• I don't think you're going to find a "Node.js fingerprint scanning library." You're going to find appropriate hardware that has some way to access the data on the web (i.e. the manufacturer provides a cloud dashboard with API endpoints that the data uploads to). In this scenario, Node would only e into the picture when you hit those endpoints and receive the data, at which point you could process them however you like. – 223seneca Commented Jul 28, 2018 at 14:28

Check out WebAuthn it is still not well supported because it's very new but it's there. From what i gather it will enable biometric signins and signups. Here are some useful links:

https://www.w3/TR/webauthn/

https://developers.google./web/updates/2018/05/webauthn

And here is a demo:

Click register new credential and it will ask for user touch.
