javascript-regex

Improved syntax for JavaScript regular expressions.

Check out the One Dark for Regex theme for a practical use.

This package implements two tree-sitter parsers:

• tree-sitter-regex-unicode-js for regular expressions that have the Unicode flag set
• tree-sitter-regex-js for the rest

Troubleshooting

Unable to install on Windows

Instead of installing it from within Atom, try from the command line.

cd %USERPROFILE%\.atom\packages
apm install javascript-regex

Failure to load package grammars when I open Atom

Whenever Atom is updated, this package needs to be rebuilt. Either click the red bug icon in the bottom-right corner of the window, or execute Incompatible Packages: View via the command palette. Then, click "Rebuild Packages". You'll have to restart Atom.

If anyone has a better solution, please let me know.
