# lanyard
A small, simple implementation of [NanoID](https://github.com/ai/nanoid) for Gleam, which is 100% dependency free! Not even bringing in the standard library!
Should work (and has been tested on) Erlang, JS in the browser, NodeJS 11+, Bun, and Deno.

```sh
gleam add lanyard@1
```
```gleam
import lanyard.{NanoID}
pub fn main() {
let NanoID(my_new_id) = lanyard.new()
echo my_new_id // A default, 21 character long NanoID
let NanoID(my_short_id) = lanyard.custom_length(8)
echo my_short_id // A shorter, 8 character long NanoID
}
```
