> The current implementation creates a device ID and puts it in localStorage:
>         // deviceId aka uuid
>         var deviceId = localStorage.deviceId;
>         if(!deviceId) {
>             deviceId = utils.createUUID();
>             console.log(deviceId);
>             localStorage.deviceId = deviceId;
>         }
> This should more properly use WinRT's HardwareIdentification class, e.g.
> private string GetHardwareId()
> {
> var token = HardwareIdentification.GetPackageSpecificToken(null);
> var hardwareId = token.Id;
> var dataReader = Windows.Storage.Streams.DataReader.FromBuffer(hardwareId);
> byte[] bytes = new byte[hardwareId.Length];
> dataReader.ReadBytes(bytes);
> return BitConverter.ToString(bytes);
> }
> (I appreciate that's C# - I've cribbed it from another project, but this should work in WinJS.)
