Nano ID is a JavaScript library for generating tiny, secure, URL-friendly unique string IDs. It provides a drop-in replacement for UUID v4 with shorter IDs (21 characters vs 36) while maintaining similar collision probability. The library is designed for high performance, being 50% faster than native `crypto.randomUUID()`, and is extremely lightweight at 117 bytes minified and brotlied with zero runtime dependencies. The architecture is modular: the main entry point (`index.js`) exports `nanoid()`, `customAlphabet()`, `customRandom()`, `random()`, and `urlAlphabet`. It uses the Node.js `crypto` module (Web Crypto API in browsers) for hardware-random bytes, with rejection sampling to ensure uniform distribution across the alphabet. A pre-generated string pool optimization avoids per-character concatenation, significantly boosting throughput. A browser-specific variant (`index.browser.js`) uses `crypto.getRandomValues` directly, and a non-secure variant (`non-secure/index.js`) uses `Math.random()` for environments without hardware random generators. The library also includes a CLI (`bin/nanoid.js`) for generating IDs from the terminal. Key data flows: random bytes are obtained from the system's secure random generator, then mapped to alphabet characters using either a bitmask (for power-of-two alphabets) or rejection sampling (for arbitrary alphabets). The pool mechanism pre-generates a buffer of random IDs and serves them via cheap substring operations, refilling as needed. The code is extensively commented, documenting every optimization hack, and is covered by unit tests, distribution uniformity tests, and benchmarks against other ID generators. External dependencies are limited to development tools (testing, benchmarking, linting). The library supports modern Node.js (22, 24, 26+), browsers, and React Native via a polyfill. It has been ported to over 20 programming languages, ensuring consistent ID generation across client and server stacks.

This repository implements a web application that serves as a comprehensive cheat sheet for CSS easing functions. Built with TypeScript, Pug, and CSS, it provides interactive visualizations of various easing functions along with their CSS and JavaScript implementations. The application features internationalization support, PWA capabilities with service workers, and a responsive design. Key architectural concerns include modular separation of concerns between helpers, components, and core logic, with build optimization via Parcel-bundler.
