Debug JavaScript regex patterns

Test a pattern against real text, adjust JavaScript flags and see match positions without wiring up a temporary script or console snippet.

Preview replacement output

Use the replacement field to check how a find-and-replace operation will change content before applying it in code, spreadsheets or CMS fields.

Review captured groups

Each match output includes captured groups when the pattern contains parentheses, which makes extraction patterns easier to inspect.

Keep test data local

Regex matching and replacement previews run in your browser, so pasted logs, samples and draft text do not need to be sent to a server.
