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. 116 bytes (minified and brotlied). No dependencies.
Size Limit controls the size. - 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 over 20 programming languages.
import { nanoid } from 'nanoid'
