Trying to use \hfill and \pspicture (for pst-barcode) in the same conceptual row is overflowing the box.
And it looks like the version of barracuda distributed with TeXLive is a bit older. If you download the most recent release (v.0.0.12), you can get UPC-A barcodes:

LaTeX Input for Impatient Scholars
LaTeX tends to intertwine content and presentation logic. In contrast, ConTeXt employs the concept of "setups" that make keeping the two aspects of a document distinct [0]. Part 8 of my Typesetting Markdown series [1] shows how to use annotations to write a poem in plain text, then subsequently format it using ConTeXt.
In many cases, authors need only basic TeX, which can be rendered by LaTeX, ConTeXt, and other TeX-based typesetting solutions. My text editor, KeenWrite, provides real-time basic TeX rendering. See the screenshots [2] for examples of inline math, variables, and applying different themes to PDF files based on a single source document.

My notes suck. I don't know why and how to improve. Please share your notes for me 🆘
i used LaTeX for many years for my notes, presentations and correspondance. However i've had multiple issues when combining packages, so i kept using it despite these limitations until i found exactly what a was looking for: ConTeXT

Why isn't ConTeXt as popular as LaTeX?
No idea what you mean by ecosystem here. Both Emacs with AucTeX and Vim support ConTeXt out-of-the-box. The ConTeXt standalone distribution also comes with plugins for other editors, e.g. VSCode for those who like editing text files in a web browser.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing barracuda and context-mirror you can also consider the following projects:
