## Limitations
The library can only create new uuids using the underlaying operating system resources.
An alternative to this library could be the [boost::uuid](http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_65_1/libs/uuid/) library. This has a similar model, but supports creating all variant of uuids, including md5 and sha1 name based, time based, and random number based values.
## Support ## Support
The library is supported on all major operating systems: Windows, Linux and Mac OS. The library is supported on all major operating systems: Windows, Linux and Mac OS.
