Thanks, those posts are interesting.
It's not the same, but it creates also nice graphs to understand the regex better

This has been a great help to me lately. If the devs are reading this: Thanks!
I like https://regex101.com because of the way it colors things. The maps seem like they'd get too complex to be super useful on more complex patterns, but I'll give this a shot too next time I need it. I also have an Jupyter notebook that I often use for testing Python regex and match groups.
When I fix Regex related bugs, I use the permalinks for Debuggex generated graphs for comments, documentation, JIRA tickets, etc. Very useful.
What language are you fixing the bugs in? It's unfortunate that C# Regex is unique enough that this won't quite work for me.
I'm primarily a Java dev. It's very frustrating that Java doesn't support PCRE syntax, as a first-class language thing. I hate escaping quotes within strings and so forth.
This looks extremely useful, thanks for sharing.

It's $5 a month for a "basic" account, which is about $80 AUD a year. I guess I just don't earn enough to be able to afford $5 * month * number of SaaS services I could use.

Is this still operational? Site copyright and most recent blog post both say 2013.
I'm intensely curious about paid memberships for web apps such as these. On one hand, they are absolutely awesome. On the other hand, I'm too much of a programmer to see how this generates revenue.
I have an app which also serves as a tool for a small niche (much smaller than debuggex). A bunch of people use my tool daily but I've always assumed that if I created a 'premium' version, I won't make more than $5-$10 :)
