base36-uuid

Base36 version of universally unique identifier (UUID) for Node.js.

Description

This module uses crypto.randomUUID() and Math.random() to generate a random-sized base36 version of the UUIDv4. To ensure that the id starts with a letter, a random letter is added at the beginning of the result.

This is a good option to generate ids that will be used safely in browsers, as it uses only alphanumeric characters, and is case insensitive.

Usage

import uid from "base36-uuid";

console.log(uid());

// b14g68lgtkffkdr5t25x4udyrrx
