Nano ID

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. 118 bytes (minified and brotlied). No dependencies. Size Limit controls the size.
Fast. 50% faster than native crypto.randomUUID().
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'
model.id = nanoid() //=> "V1StGXR8_Z5jdHi6B-myT"

Nano ID is built by Evil Martians, an American design and engineering consultancy for developer tools, AI, and cybersecurity startups.
