How the Diff Checker Works

This checker uses a line-level Longest Common Subsequence (LCS) algorithm to analyze text changes entirely inside your browser memory. It highlights changes as follows:

  • Deletions (Red background): Lines present in the original text but removed or replaced in the modified version.
  • Additions (Green background): New lines inserted in the modified text.

  • Side-by-Side: Shows the original and modified contents in a paired dual-column spreadsheet layout, allowing direct horizontal alignment.
  • Inline (Unified): Integrates additions and deletions chronologically in a single running text block, similar to Git commit patches.
