Questions & answers

Frequently asked

Does it do word-level diff?

The default is line-level. Changed lines are highlighted; you can see word-level changes by looking at the side-by-side view of each modified line.

Can I compare files?

Yes. Each panel accepts drag-and-drop or file upload for .txt, .md, .json, .yaml, .csv, and similar text files.
