โ Text Diff
Text comparison (diff) identifies the differences between two texts. It's a fundamental task across software development โ code reviews, document version control, and configuration change tracking all rely on it. Similar to Git's diff command, it visually distinguishes added lines (green), deleted lines (red), and unchanged lines. This tool supports line, word, and character-level comparison with both side-by-side and unified view layouts.
How to Use
- 1Enter Original Text
Paste the original (baseline) text in the left panel.
- 2Enter Compare Text
Paste the modified (changed) text in the right panel.
- 3Configure Options
Set comparison unit (line/word/character), view mode (side-by-side/unified), and toggle options like ignore case, ignore whitespace, etc.
- 4Review Results
Additions (green) and deletions (red) are highlighted with colors. Similarity percentage and statistics (added/removed/unchanged counts) are also shown.
Tips
- ๐กEnable 'Auto Compare' to see results update instantly as you type or paste text.
- ๐กUse the 'Swap' button to quickly switch original and compare texts.
- ๐กThe 'Changes only' option is useful for large files โ it hides unchanged lines to focus on what changed.
- ๐กGreat for code reviews: compare pre- and post-deployment code to catch unintended changes.
