Private by design

Everything happens in your browser. Nothing you type, paste or upload is sent anywhere, and it keeps working offline once the page has loaded.

What you get

A match verdict per path, with the reason, with a Copy and a Download button on every result.

  • glob
  • minimatch

Why it matters

Tests glob patterns against paths with minimatch, picomatch or bash semantics and explains each match.

Own glob-to-regex compiler with dialect switches (minimatch/picomatch options: dot, nocase, matchBase; bash globstar/extglob), brace expansion, character classes, negation lists. Shows compiled RegExp and per-path explanation. Everything runs in your browser; nothing you paste is sent unless you press Fetch.

How to use it

  1. Paste or type the input the tool asks for.
  2. Read the summary and the table or preview.
  3. Adjust the options if you need a different result.
  4. Copy or download the output. Nothing leaves this page.

FAQ

Is my input uploaded?

No. The work runs in your browser and nothing you type, paste or upload is sent anywhere.

Will this change my site for me?

No. It shows results and, where it writes rules or files, you copy them and apply them yourself.

Can I rely on this as official guidance?

It follows public documentation and well-known algorithms, and tells you where it is a subset or a simulation. Confirm critical changes in the official tool or a staging environment.
