RegExr

I use regex in pipelines and not so long ago learned to search and replace with regex and named groups in VS Code (PHP) and it is priceless. I use sed and grep occasionally on Linux or also in pipelines. (You can always look the syntax up) My go to tool for regex is https://regexr.com where you can see what will the outcome be and there is also wiki and examples. I was always scared of regex but learned to write it like that.
