Currently I'm developing an web based application which needs a functionality of reading and writing data into a smart card. The implementation needs to be done specifically on chrome browser. Smart card writing reading protocol can be written using JCOP with the standard of ISO-7816. but the concern is to connect the smart card in the client side in chrome ? An help would be very appreciated

There are two options in Chrome when it comes to smartcard communication:

  1. Native messaging
    You can take a look at chrome-token-signing project for a real-world example.
  2. Local application with WebSocket server
    Browser communicates via the WebSocket with the locally installed application/server that can access connected smartcard.
