Simple UUID
A lightweight VS Code extension that adds a Status Bar button to
instantly generate and copy a random UUID v4 to your clipboard.

Features
- One click in the Status Bar generates a fresh UUID v4 and copies it
to the clipboard.
- Also available from the Command Palette as "Copy random UUID v4".
- Shows a quick confirmation message with the generated value.
- Zero dependencies — uses Node's built-in
crypto.randomUUID().
Usage
- Look for the
UUID icon in the Status Bar (bottom right of the
window).
- Click it.
- The UUID is now in your clipboard — paste it anywhere.
Alternatively, open the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P /
Cmd+Shift+P) and run "Copy random UUID v4".
