2:00 When I started working at a new company, one of my first tasks was to create a new type of input field. It was a CRM so there were lots of different input elements available already and each of them was validated through regex. As someone who only had little experience using Regex, I was completely overwhelmed by the complexity of it. Later I had to debug some of those elements, which I did but it took ages to even understand what was going on. So, as you said if there is another way to validate something then please avoid using Regex and if you can't avoid it, add documentation with examples to explain exactly what it is doing/supposed to be doing.
Yeap exactly what you say. I didn't mention writing docs for reg exr because I didn't see even a single comment of reg exr in last 13 years. It would obviously help tremendously but most people are going for "I remember what it does now".
