Text Diff

Compare text like GitHub: additions, deletions, and context.


Interactive
The text diff workspace is being lifted from the original build.

The same logic you already rely on, dressed in the new editorial layout. Until it lands here, the notes below cover what the tool does and when it earns its keep.

Paste two blocks of text and see a Git-style diff with line numbers and color-coded highlights. Built with an LCS algorithm to maximize accuracy even on large documents.

Readable diffs

Removals appear in red, additions in green, and unchanged lines stay neutral. Perfect for reviewing config changes before commit.

Sticky copy controls

Copy entire panes or specific sections, expand the view, and keep track of differences even on mobile thanks to responsive layout.

When it earns its keep

  • Review documentation edits from teammates
  • Compare API responses over time
  • Check user-submitted text for modifications
