Getting Started

The Code Diff Checker is a comprehensive tool for comparing code versions, reviewing pull request changes, or analyzing differences between code snippets. With intuitive visual diff tools and detailed statistics, you can quickly understand code changes.

Quick Start Steps:

  1. Select Language - Choose the programming language of your code from the dropdown
  2. Enter Original Code - Paste or upload the original version in the left panel
  3. Enter Modified Code - Paste or upload the modified version in the right panel
  4. View Differences - Switch to the "Diff View" tab to see highlighted changes
  5. Export or Share - Copy, export, or share the diff as needed

Tip: Use the "Load Example" button to see a sample diff in your selected language and understand how the tool works.

Input Methods

The tool supports multiple ways to input code for comparison, making it flexible for various workflows.

Paste Code

Simply paste your code directly into the text areas. The editor supports multi-line input and preserves formatting.

File Upload

Click the "Upload" button or drag and drop files directly onto the input panels. Supports multiple file types up to 5MB.

Shareable Links

Generate shareable links that include code pre-filled via URL parameters. Perfect for sharing specific comparisons.

Supported File Types:

The tool supports uploading files with these extensions:

.js.ts.py.java.cpp.cs.go.rs.php.rb.swift.kt.html.css.json.yaml.md.sql.sh.txt

View Modes

The tool offers two distinct view modes for visualizing code differences, each suited to different review preferences.

Split View (Side-by-Side)

Displays the original and modified code in two side-by-side panels. Changes are highlighted with red backgrounds for removed lines and green backgrounds for added lines.

Best for: When you need to see the full context of both versions and understand exactly what changed in each location.

Unified View

Shows all changes in a single continuous stream, similar to git diff output. Added lines are shown with a + prefix and green highlighting, while removed lines show with a - prefix and red highlighting.

Best for: Quick reviews and when you prefer the traditional git-style diff format.

Features & Settings

Customize your diff experience with various features and settings to match your workflow.

Search in Diff

Use the search bar to find specific text within the diff. Search terms are highlighted across both code panels.

Ignore Whitespace

Toggle to ignore whitespace-only changes, focusing only on meaningful code modifications.

Sync Scroll

When enabled, scrolling one panel automatically scrolls the other, keeping changes aligned and easier to review.

Word Wrap

Enable word wrapping for long lines to view code without horizontal scrolling. Useful for diffs with long strings or URLs.

Available Actions:

  • Load Example - Load a sample diff to see how the tool works with example code
  • Reset - Clear both input panels and start fresh
  • Copy - Copy both code versions to clipboard
  • Export - Save the diff in Markdown, HTML, or JSON format
  • Share - Generate a shareable link with pre-filled code

Diff Statistics

The tool provides comprehensive statistics about the code differences, helping you quickly understand the scope of changes.
