What it is
----------

[](#what-it-is)

This package is a library reference implementation for the UUID contracts I am working on.

What it is *not*
----------------

[](#what-it-is-not)

A package for generating UUIDs. You are probably looking for something like the excellent [ramsey/uuid](https://github.com/ramsey/uuid) package.

Status and roadmap
------------------

[](#status-and-roadmap)

This package is considered pre-alpha. The main goal is to make several value objects for quick data validation, and some helper classes to instantiate those. At the same time I will add unit tests. When it is a useful and minimal package I will start extracting interfaces from this and put them in their own repository. I might even extract some basic tests and put those in the contracts package too, but I have not made up my mind about that.

Why use this?
-------------

[](#why-use-this)

Currently you probably should not use this. However, if you wish to help me get this package into shape, feel free to contact me and we will discuss the possibilities.
