# PURL SWID Generator (UI) | ||
|
||
A simple webapp that provides guidance on and creates Package URLs of type "swid". | ||
|
||
SWID is defined in [ISO-IEC 19770-2 Software Identification (SWID) tags](https://www.iso.org/standard/65666.html) and | ||
defines an XML Schema. Ironically, the SWID specification supports more than software identity, however, in the case of | ||
Package URL (which is primarily an identity and location specification) the identity portions of SWID can be leveraged | ||
and represented in PURL. This approach makes PURL formatted SWID more easily accessible and available to software | ||
consumers and systems leveraging SBOM, ITAM, and SAM. | ||
|
||
[Launch the PURL SWID Generator](https://package-url.github.io/purl-swid-generator-ui/) to learn more and generate your | ||
own SWID tags that are represented in Package URL format. |
