About UUID Validator
Not every 36-character hyphenated string is actually a valid UUID - wrong nibble in the version field, invalid variant bits, or just malformed input from a flaky upstream system.
This checks the canonical 8-4-4-4-12 layout and reports the detected version and variant, purely structurally - no network calls, no false sense of cryptographic verification, just a fast sanity check before that string hits your database schema.
FAQ
- Does it verify signatures?
- No - structural validation only.
