What is Regex?

Regex stands for Regular Expression.

A regex is a search pattern used to:

  • Find text
  • Validate input
  • Match patterns
  • Extract data
  • Replace text

Regular expressions are widely used in JavaScript and web development.

Regex Example in JavaScript

Example:

const regex = /hello/i;

This pattern searches for the word:

hello

case-insensitively.

Test Regex in JavaScript

JavaScript provides native regex support.

Example:

regex.test("Hello world")

This returns:

true

if the pattern matches.
