A Rust library for generating and parsing UUIDs (universally unique identifiers) per RFC 9562. It supports multiple UUID versions including random v4 generation, compile-time literals, and string parsing.
Use cases
- generate unique ids in rust
- parse uuid strings
- generate random uuids v4
- assign unique identifiers without a central authority
- create ids for distributed systems
- define uuid constants at compile time
When to choose
- you need UUID generation or parsing in a Rust project
- you need standards-compliant RFC 9562 UUIDs
- you want a widely used, battle-tested crate with huge adoption
When to avoid
- you need UUIDs in a language other than Rust
- you need other identifier schemes like ULID or Snowflake IDs
