What does the GoChronos Diff tool do?

The Diff tool compares two blocks of text and highlights every difference: added lines in green, removed lines in red and unchanged lines in grey. It uses the Myers diff algorithm — the same algorithm used by Git.

Can I compare files as well as pasted text?

Yes. Upload two text files (up to approximately 5 MB each) and the tool diffs their contents. Supported file types include .txt, .json, .xml, .csv, .md and any other plain-text format.

Is the diff algorithm standard?

Yes. The tool uses the Myers diff algorithm which produces minimal, human-readable diffs — the same algorithm used by Git, SVN and most code-review platforms.

Is the diff tool free?

Yes. Free on GoChronos, works offline.
