FAQ
Quick answers about UUID versions and usage.
What's v1/v3/v4/v5?
v1 is time-based, v4 is random, v3 is deterministic with namespace + name (MD5), and v5 is deterministic with namespace + name (SHA-1).
Which should I use?
Most users should pick v4. Use v3/v5 when you need repeatable IDs from a namespace and name, and v1 only if you specifically need time-based ordering.
Are UUIDs secure?
UUIDs are identifiers, not secrets. Avoid using them as authentication tokens; v4 is generally safe for uniqueness but not a replacement for cryptographic secrets.
