About this tool
Generates ULIDs: 26 characters of Crockford base32 encoding a millisecond timestamp followed by randomness. Like UUID v7 they sort by creation time, but they are shorter, case-insensitive and avoid characters that are easily confused.
Questions
- ULID or UUID v7?
- They solve the same problem. Choose UUID v7 when the value must go in a uuid database column; choose ULID when it is user-visible and the shorter form helps.
