What are some edge cases for Regex Tester?

Catastrophic backtracking prevention and lookbehinds.

Is this Regex Tester safe for sensitive data & credentials?

Yes, 100%. All processing runs client-side in your local browser memory. No text, tokens, payloads, or logs are ever transmitted to any remote server or analytics engine.

Can I use Regex Tester offline without internet?
