 # UUIDv7 for Python
 
-A simple module for generating UUIDv7 that contain creation timestamps. Another function for extracting the time of an UUID.
+A simple module for generating UUIDv7s with creation times, and for extracting the time from a UUID.
 
-ℹ️ As of writing, Python had no UUIDv7 support. Now it does, but doesn't allow providing nor extracting timestamps, which both are supported by this module. Beware there's also an abandoned package `uuid7` that uses a draft RFC with incorrect timestamps (some two centuries off).

-- **Standard compliant**: Follows the final UUIDv7 [specification](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9562.html#name-uuid-version-7).
-- **Pythonic**: Uses stdlib `datetime` and `UUID` facilities rather than milliseconds or bare strings.
+- **Standards-compliant**: Follows the final UUIDv7 [specification](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9562.html#name-uuid-version-7).
+- **Pythonic**: Uses stdlib `datetime` and `UUID` facilities rather than (milli)seconds, custom UUID types, or bare strings, as used by alternatives such as `uuid7-rs`.
+- **Lightweight**: A tiny pure-Python module with no dependencies, fast enough to process about a million UUIDv7s per second per CPU core.
