About

Haikunator generates memorable, haiku-like identifiers in the format 'adjective-noun-number'. These IDs are human-readable, easy to remember, and provide a friendly alternative to technical identifiers. They're popular in cloud platforms like Heroku for resource naming. Haikunator IDs combine two words (adjective and noun) with a number, creating identifiers that are both unique and memorable, making them ideal for user-facing resource names.

Use Cases

  • Cloud platform resource naming (Heroku-style)
  • User-friendly application identifiers
  • Development and staging environment names
  • Human-readable unique identifiers
  • Friendly error codes and identifiers
  • Resource names in developer tools
