zid
Generate random strings made up of A-Za-z0-9 that are also URL compatible. Only good package name of '?id' left.
You choose the length. No underscore, no dash, no slash or backslash, indeed no other chars.

console.log(zid(6))

{ lookalikes: false }:
console.log(zid({ lookalikes: false }))
// -> returns an ID using these chars only:
// -> ABCDEFGHJKLMNPQRTUVWXYacdefghijkmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789
