Create GUID for Visual Studio Code

Create GUID is an extension for Visual Studio Code that adds a command which can be used to generate GUIDs.

Guide

After installing this extension you can create new GUIDs by brining up the command prompt (F1) and typing Create GUID. When this command is executed it will generate a new version 4 UUID and copy it to your clipboard where you can then paste it wherever you like.

About

This extension uses the node-uuid package to generate GUIDs and the copy-paste package to copy values to the clipboard.
