### A type-safe, K-sortable, globally unique identifier inspired by Stripe IDs

[TypeIDs](https://github.com/jetpack-io/typeid) are a modern, type-safe, globally unique identifier based on the upcoming UUIDv7 standard. They provide a ton of nice properties that make them a great choice as the primary identifiers for your data in a database, APIs, and distributed systems. Read more about TypeIDs in their spec.
