Building a browser-based receipt scanner with LiteRT.js

SMRTR summary

LiteRT.js brings Google's on-device AI runtime to the browser using WebAssembly and WebGPU, letting developers run standard .tflite models without an external API. This tutorial builds a full OCR receipt scanner that detects text, reconstructs layout, and uses an on-device Gemma model via LiteRT-LM to produce structured JSON — all locally in the browser with no data leaving the device.
