regex-translator lays a simple, data-driven foundation which can be expanded upon to one day be able to perfectly interpolate between all regex flavours. For example: PCRE has the most features and is the flavour most commonly used in user-facing applications but I primarily program in Javascript nowadays which has its own standard for regex (ECMA) and I use Vim as my text editor which uses its own hyper-idiomatic version of regular expressions! Eventually, I got tired of the headaches from manually converting between regex flavours so I created this, a NodeJS package and CLI application for converting between regex flavours with relative ease. I love regex! It's extremely useful and I practice it nigh religiously but there's a catch: regular expressions have never had a singular, definitive standard that has really taken off and, as a result, each regex engine has its own slightly different variation on the core syntax. Convert a Regular Expression from one flavour to another.
