Example
Finding every number in a string
Pattern: \d+ Text: "Order #123 shipped, invoice #456 pending"
2 matches — "123" at index 7, "456" at index 29
How it works
The pattern runs against your test string using the browser's native RegExp engine, entirely client-side.
Common use cases
- Debugging validation patterns
- Learning regex
- Extracting data with capturing groups
Frequently asked questions
- Can a bad pattern freeze the page?
- Input length and pattern complexity are limited to reduce the risk of catastrophic backtracking, but very pathological patterns can still be slow in any regex engine.
