FAQ

Does it work for code?

Yes. The diff is character-level so it handles code, prose, configs, JSON, anything text-based.

How big can the inputs be?

Up to a few hundred KB on each side. Very large inputs slow down because the algorithm is O(N*M).

Is my text uploaded?

No. The diff runs entirely in your browser using the jsdiff library.
