Show HN: I built a better text diff website for developers and writers

Operating in show hn launch, I built a better text diff website for developers and writers operates.

Profile

A few times a week I find myself turning to diff checker websites to compare snippets of text or JSON, but I've always found their UIs clunky or unnecessarily complicated. I set out to build a simpler option with a pleasing UI.Features that mattered to me:- Client-side only diff that never leaves the browser- Clear indicator when text is identical- Text input preserved in localstorage so it persists between refreshes- Ability to show only changed lines for comparing larger files- Auto JSON formatting to test for equivalence (pretty print + object key sort)- Drag-and-drop text files directly into the input fields- Dark mode

I built a better text diff website for developers and writers is positioned in show hn launch, a segment that rewards a clear, focused offering.

The company is listed at the Show HN launch stage of development.
