    Digging deeper now I found these links, so basically it uses `ThreadRng` from the `rand` crate. It mentions that the `ThreadRng` also seeds data from `OsRng` so I guess it's not much different, but I'm no expert in this area so I will post the links so if you find anything useful, please share:https://github.com/uuid-rs/uuid/issues/529https://github.com/uuid-rs/uuid/pull/545https://docs.rs/rand/latest/rand/rngs/struct.ThreadRng.html

    Those aren’t bytes — they’re integers of various sizes. (Hint: do not use integer types in C code for portable data structures. ntohl, etc are a mess. Just use arrays of bytes.)

    I don’t know the whole history, but MS somehow took this structure at face value and caused problems like this:

    https://github.com/uuid-rs/uuid/issues/277

    So, if you want to do anything (e.g. sorting) that depends on the representation of a UUID (or even depends on converting between string and binary representations), be aware that UUIDs coming from Windows may be little-endian. In my book, this is a Windows bug, but opinions may differ here.

    I maintain the Dart UUID library. For anyone using dart, or wants to see one of many implementations of v6,v7 and a custom v8 UUID, feel free to look at my in-progress branch linked below, I plan to merge it in once they add different string representations in a future draft (I've been involved in the conversations).

What are some alternatives?

When comparing uuid and dart-uuid you can also consider the following projects:

fastuuid - FastUUID is a library which provides CPython bindings to Rust's UUID library

uuid7 - UUID version 7, which are time-sortable (following the Peabody RFC4122 draft)

rust-base64 - base64, in rust

uuid6-python - New time-based UUID formats which are suited for use as a database key

ulid-lite - Generate unique, yet sortable identifiers

prototypes - Draft Prototypes and Tests for UUIDv6 and beyond

ulid - Universally Unique Lexicographically Sortable Identifier (ULID) in Python 3

Hashids.java - Hashids algorithm v1.0.0 implementation in Java

presents - Like hashids, but based on block ciphers

time - The most used Rust library for date and time handling.

vanity-uuid - Create "readable" UUIDs such as "5eedbed5-f05e-b055-ada0-d15ab11171e5" for all your UUID needs!
