Why use this tool
- Powered by <code class="font-mono text-xs">randexp</code> — generates strings that match a given regex.
- Library loaded lazily — page stays light.
- Great for seeding test data, fixtures, or fuzzing inputs.
- Pure client-side — your patterns and outputs stay local.
Frequently asked questions
Why are anchors stripped?
randexp builds strings from the pattern body — anchors (<code class="font-mono">^</code>, <code class="font-mono">$</code>) describe position rather than content, so they're removed automatically with a note above the output.
How is open-ended <code class="font-mono">.*</code> handled?
Quantifiers without a max bound are capped at 32 repetitions so output stays usable.
Can I use lookaheads or backreferences?
Lookarounds and backreferences are not supported by randexp's generation strategy. Most character classes, groups, alternation, and quantifiers do work.
