Compare two text inputs

Paste original text and modified text to see line-by-line additions, removals, and unchanged lines. Choose a side-by-side or unified view. Within changed lines, the tool highlights differing characters. It also reports addition and deletion counts and lets you copy the displayed diff or download a patch-style text file.

Optional settings compare lines without case differences or normalize runs of spaces and tabs before comparing. Whitespace normalization trims line ends but preserves line breaks. This is a visual text comparison; the downloaded output is not guaranteed to apply with every patch utility.

Comparison runs locally in your browser.
