How to ignore text between quotes in JavaScript?
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
I make my own language in JavaScript using regular expression. How can you recommend to ignore text in string variables?
for example, my code:
if (flag) {
print("Yes")
} elif (!flag) {
print("Elif is worked")
}
will transpile to
if (flag) {
console.log("Yes")
} else if (!flag) {
console.log("else if is worked")
}
I want to ignore text in quotes:
if (flag) {
console.log("Yes")
} else if (!flag) {
console.log("elif is worked")
}

What do you mean by saying "ignore" ? Do you want to replace the texts with string variables ?

I dont want to replace my features. For example "elif" converts to "else if". I don't want to change it in string variable.

Without wanting to discourage you: Don't use regular expressions, because the problem domain is too complex for them to work properly. Instead, implement a tokenizer and a parser. But generally speaking, this topic is too broad to be answered here.
There is a tutorial online here which shows how to implement a programming language in javascript.
