uuid

Generates UUID-format strings using high quality, purely random bytes. It is not intended to be RFC compliant, merely to use a well-understood string representation of a 128-bit value. It can also parse UUID-format strings into their component bytes.

Documentation

The full documentation is available on pkg.go.dev.
