Nano ID

English | Русский | 简体中文 | Bahasa Indonesia

A tiny, secure, URL-friendly, unique string ID generator for JavaScript.

“An amazing level of senseless perfectionism,
which is simply impossible not to respect.”

• Small. 130 bytes (minified and gzipped). No dependencies.
  Size Limit controls the size.
• Fast. It is 2 times faster than UUID.
• Safe. It uses hardware random generator. Can be used in clusters.
• Short IDs. It uses a larger alphabet than UUID (A-Za-z0-9_-).
  So ID size was reduced from 36 to 21 symbols.
• Portable. Nano ID was ported
  to 20 programming languages.

import { nanoid } from 'nanoid'
model.id = nanoid() //=> "V1StGXR8_Z5jdHi6B-myT"

Supports modern browsers, IE with Babel, Node.js and React Native.
