Now that UUIDv7 is lexicographic, does that mean there is no use for ULID?
A JavaScript implementation of UUID version 7. Latest version: 1.0.0, last published: a month ago. Start using uuidv7 in your project by running `npm i uuidv7`. There are 35 other projects in the npm registry using uuidv7.
The remaining 32 rand bits are filled with a cryptographically strong random number. UUIDv7, by design, relies on the system clock to guarantee the monotonically increasing order of generated IDs. It also provides a fallible variant of the generator function to give an absolute guarantee of the increasing order of UUIDs despite a significant rollback of the system timestamp source.
