How to compare two texts online
- Paste the original and modified text, or load one file into each side.
- Choose whether to ignore case, whitespace, or blank lines.
- Select Compare to see additions, removals, and changed words.
- Switch between side-by-side and unified views, then copy or download the unified diff.
/capabilities
A fast diff checker for code and plain text
Clear changes
Line-level changes use explicit plus and minus markers, with word-level highlights for manageable changed lines.
Bounded work
Large unchanged sections collapse automatically. Highly divergent regions fall back to a coarse summary instead of freezing the page.
/local-share-files
Share large text pairs without uploading them
Open Share to package the current comparison or choose two source files directly. A public .ddshare file compresses the pair; a password-protected file compresses first and then encrypts each block locally. Packages may contain up to 4 GiB combined. Inputs above 10 MB per side can be packaged and extracted, but are not loaded into the interactive diff workspace.
/faq
Text comparison questions
Are my texts uploaded?
No. Both inputs are compared in a dedicated browser worker. Text, filenames, and diff content are not included in analytics events.
What files can I compare?
Any plain-text format is suitable, including TXT, JSON, YAML, XML, Markdown, source code, configuration files, and CSV.
What is the input limit?
Each side accepts up to 10 MB. Very large or highly divergent sections may be summarized to protect browser responsiveness.
Are .ddshare files uploaded?
No. Creation, password protection, opening, and extraction are local. Data Demon does not host the resulting file; send it using a file-transfer route you choose.
