Even though this project is now built with typescript, I get this error when I use it on my node app:

Could not find a declaration file for module 'uuid'. './app/node_modules/uuid/dist/esm-browser/index.js' implicitly has an 'any' type.
  Try `npm i --save-dev @types/uuid` if it exists or add a new declaration (.d.ts) file containing `declare module 'uuid';`ts(7016)

This fix exports types declaration from package.json.

Sorry, uuid@11 has not actually been published yet. It's still a work in progress, and uuid@10 (the latest version) doesn't have types included with it yet. So, for now, you still need to npm install @types/uuid despite what the README says.

Sorry about that! I expect to have v11 published in the next 1-2 weeks, and you should be good to go then.
