Hi @MaartendeKruijf , implemented here: https://sharevb-it-tools.vercel.app/uuid-generator

And if you are interested in an up to date version of it-tools, with many improvements, new tools, and bug fixes, as this repo is almost no more maintained, I made a fork here : https://github.com/sharevb/it-tools (https://sharevb-it-tools.vercel.app/ and docker images https://github.com/sharevb/it-tools/pkgs/container/it-tools)

UUID v8 is now also available, so please implement that as well.

Thank you very much.

Hi @strausmann , unfortunately cannot implement uuidv8, as stated here: https://www.npmjs.com/package/uuid#uuidv8 (sound also like that https://www.npmjs.com/package/uuid-v8 exists but very very experimental)
