Here we are!

I spent nice time with my new board Linkit One and here i introduce you my first project.

Linkit One UUID4 Generator

This is a simple sketch to create a random generate UUID4 Code, it's designed to be fitte in more extended project.

What is UUID ?
" A universally unique identifier (UUID) is an identifier standard used in software construction. A UUID is simply a 128-bit value. The meaning of each bit is defined by any of several variants." by Wikipedia

Shopping list

  • Linkit One Board
  • Arduino IDE
  • Putty ( better Serial Monitor)
  • 15 minutes

Step 1: Code Stuff

FREE SOURCE?? WHERE??

I know, you are here for the code. And it's the right place!!

I'v Hosted the code on Github ! HERE

So Copy&Paste in Arduino IDE and press the big blue botton.

Step 2: That's It

YEP

look at the Serial Monitor for your UUID4 Code.

Every time you will reset the board it will create a new number (for a better randomness)

I Hope you will use this code and share you changes!

p.S It is my first instructables so be gentle =)
