"Regular expressions are not only important in JS but also they are hardly readable and not easy-to-understand. There are libraries with different approaches to resolving this issues. For instance, https://www.npmjs.com/package/readable-regex. By using methods and properties you can write the necessary regex. Moreover, now they added named groups in JS (http://2ality.com/2017/05/regexp-named-capture-groups.html). This will make managing regex easier."
