Calculation Logic
The tool uses the browser's JavaScript RegExp engine locally:
- The pattern is compiled into a JavaScript regular expression.
- Flags change case sensitivity, multiline behavior, global matching, and more.
- Capture groups expose specific parts inside each match.
- Input length is capped to reduce the risk of slow patterns freezing the page.
FAQ
Is my sample text uploaded?
No. Matching runs locally in your browser, and sample text is not uploaded to a server.
Which regex flavor does this use?
The first version uses JavaScript RegExp. It does not emulate PCRE, Python, RE2, or other engines.
How do I see capture groups?
After a match is found, capture groups are listed per match so you can inspect each parenthesized submatch.
Why does my regex work elsewhere but not here?
Regex syntax varies by language and engine. This tester follows JavaScript regex behavior.
Can a regex freeze the page?
Very complex patterns can be expensive. The tool limits input length and reports errors or boundaries in the UI.
