RahulMJon Readable Regular Expressions for JavaScript/TypeScript, Inspired by Emacs' Rx

I missed Emacs' rx when writing regexps in TypeScript, so I made a small TypeScript DSL inspired by it.

The idea is to bring rx's functions and approach to the JavaScript/TypeScript environment. If you happen to work with either, give it a try.

RahulMJon Emacs 31: An unofficial guide to Markdown-ts-mode

Thanks for adding this. I just made a comment expanding a bit of what users may find in the new mode.

RahulMJon Emacs 31: An unofficial guide to Markdown-ts-mode

A bit of extra info:

- `ts` stands for "tree-sitter", meaning this mode uses tree-sitter under the hood, which is, among other things, very performant.

- There's support for the CommonMark spec and GFM, so things like `- [ ]` checkboxes and ~~strikethrough~~ work out of the box, along with many other small QoL features.

- This mode is BUILT-IN, so no extra packages are needed.

- This is currently in the experimental phase, so users need to "opt in" and load the mode to play with it, hence the first part of the guide.

Thanks, I've got some trouble with hosting and all the traffic.

Should be normalized now.

Hey celadevra_, author here. Thanks for submitting my post to HN, I really appreciate it.

Seeing it stay at #1 for a few hours while my blog server struggled with the requests was quite a joy :)

PS: Also, thanks to everyone who commented on it. While I can't reply to all of you, I'm doing my best to read everything. I'm glad to hear that the project resonates with so many people, whether philosophically, aesthetically, or as something partially useful.
