// overview
What it does
UUID / ULID / Nano ID is one of 55 tools in Hexkit, a desktop developer toolbox that runs entirely on your own machine. Generate UUID v4, UUID v7, ULID or Nano ID — single or batches, optionally lowercased.
Because Hexkit is a native app rather than a web page, anything you paste into the uuid / ulid / nano id stays local — there are no uploads, no accounts and no telemetry. You can generate IDs, hashes and test data even with the network turned off, which makes it safe for tokens, keys and production data.
