Description

regexplain is a terminal user interface for building and understanding regular expressions. As you type a pattern it breaks the regex down into its components and explains what each part matches, and it highlights matches against sample text in real time.

It is aimed at learning, debugging, and experimenting with regular expressions without leaving the terminal.
