You can see the [main differences](#migration-from-ihabunekpdf417-php) below. It has been updated a bit mainly fixing a PHP 8.2 incompatibility issue and merging a few PRs. The idea is to eventually refactor all components and optimize the encoding algorithm. Thus, any contributions are more than welcome!
