What's the difference between uuid and cuid?

Hey Manu :wave:,

The main difference between `uuid` and `cuid` would be that they follow different specs in generating the `id`

<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universally_unique_identifier|UUID> are standardised by Open Source Foundation (OSF) while <https://github.com/ericelliott/cuid|CUID> is created by Eric Elliot which is optimized for Horizontal Scaling.

Another difference is of the format of ids which are generated by both packages.

You can know about differences in `cuid` and `uuid` in context of Prisma in this <https://www.prisma.io/docs/reference/api-reference/prisma-schema-reference#cuid|Reference Guide>
