|
|
* **Small.** 130 bytes (minified and gzipped). No dependencies.
|
|
|
[Size Limit] controls the size.
|
|
|
* **Fast.** It is 2 times faster than UUID.
|
|
|
* **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
|
|
