react-native-uuid

react-native-uuid is a zero-dependency TypeScript implementation of RFC4122 standard A Universally Unique IDentifier (UUID) URN Namespace. Please note, this library uses pseudo random generator based on top of Math.random. New version with hardware support is WIP.

Heavily inspired by:

• uuid
• pure-uuid
• nanoid

Huge thanks to Randy Coulman for the early version of a code.

Previous version has been based on randombytes that is not compatible with react-native out of the box. Please submit an issue if you found a bug.
