Questions about Diff Checker?

Is my text or code uploaded?

No. Text and code stay in your browser and are never sent to a server.

How are differences shown?

Unchanged words stay neutral. Only changed words within edited lines are highlighted; fully added or removed lines are marked in green or red.

Can I ignore spaces and tabs?

Yes. Ignore whitespace removes spaces and tabs within lines. Line breaks still separate lines.

Can I compare code?

Yes. Paste source code or configuration text into the two fields. The tool compares lines and highlights only the changed words within edited lines.

Does it support large texts?

It works best for documents and code of moderate size. Very large pastes may use a simplified comparison to keep the page responsive.
