UUID versions explained

A UUID (Universally Unique Identifier) is a 128-bit value represented as 32 hexadecimal characters in groups separated by hyphens. The "M" digit encodes the version: v1 is time-based (contains a 60-bit timestamp), v3 is MD5-hashed (namespace + name), v4 is random, v5 is SHA-1-hashed, v7 is Unix-ms sortable. The "N" nibble encodes the variant. For generating UUIDs in code, use crypto.randomUUID() (browsers) or the UUID Generator tool.
