About Globster
Globster is an online tool for testing glob patterns against a file tree. Users type a pattern in the input field and matching files are highlighted in blue in the directory structure.
It evaluates patterns with the minimatch 3.0.4 library, including wildcards, brace expansion, extended matching and globstar. Users can edit the file paths, use provided examples to debug patterns or learn syntax, and share the workspace through a URL. Results reflect minimatch behavior and may differ from other glob implementations.
