Question 1

How are tokens generated?

Accepted Answer

Tokens are generated using the Web Crypto API (crypto.getRandomValues), which provides cryptographically secure random numbers.

Question 2

What formats are available?

Accepted Answer

Hex (0-9, a-f) and Base64 (A-Z, a-z, 0-9, +, /). Hex tokens are twice as long as the byte length.

Question 3

What length should I use?

Accepted Answer

32 bytes (256 bits) is recommended for most use cases. 16 bytes minimum for session tokens, 64+ bytes for high-security applications.

Question 4

Are these tokens safe for production?

Accepted Answer

Yes. crypto.getRandomValues() is the standard for generating cryptographically secure random values in browsers.

Question 5

Is my data stored anywhere?

Accepted Answer

No. All generation happens in your browser. No tokens are sent to any server.
