Pattern

regexengine-agnostic
\/([^\/?#\s]+)   (flags: g)

Raw source: \/([^\/?#\s]+)

How it works

\/ matches the literal slash. ([^\/?#\s]+) captures one or more characters that aren't a slash, question mark, hash, or whitespace — i.e. one path segment. Useful for breaking apart a URL into its component pieces.
