Really cool. Do you teach people the mechanics, like what the app shows? Because I wonder if that actually makes it harder. I'm wondering about where the hard bits are, given that it all boils down to just:

  "|", which means "or"
  ".", which means "any symbol"
  "?", which means "at most once",
  "*", which means "however many times"
  "+", which means "at least once"

Maybe encountering it next to PEG scrambles your brain.
