JSVerbalExpressions Playground

[mackenza]

This is a follow-up to #82

I have worked up a first crack of a playground for JSVerbalExpressions. It needs a little work but I wanted to get people looking at it before I invest anymore time in case it's not the direction we want to go.

The repo is a fork of verbalexpressions.github.io because it requires a web server to run, so unless GH Pages was set up for this repo, the Org web page will have to do.

It's at https://github.com/mackenza/verbalExpressions.github.io/tree/js-playground
You can run the playground on a simple web server with the root being playgrounds/javascript. I use https://www.npmjs.com/package/http-server but any server will work. It won't run from a file:// URL.

Let me know what feedback you have.

if I get time, I will throw this on an Internet-accessible web server. For now, back to work 💃

I don't think this is on the right track. What we need is something very simple that only does the VerEx syntax and spits out the resulting Regex. The rest is noise. Back to the drawing board, I think.
