I built an open-source API called Readable Regex that lets you do common string manipulation tasks (like validating emails or extracting numbers) with simple API calls, and with no complex regex required! Gemini helped me generate a lot of the code (a lot of which I didn’t want to write yet again from scratch), handle tricky stuff like URL encoding, and even write this article. It was a super cool experience that showed me how AI can make coding faster, easier, and more fun. Read my linked article to learn about my process of development, how to use the API, how to contribute to it, and test it on the client-side app. Seeking feedback to see if this idea is worthwhile to continue working on. I want to validate a fast build and hopefully inspire developers to join in.
