About TextCompare
TextCompare is a web-based tool for comparing original and modified text. Users can paste or upload text files to generate side-by-side diffs with color-coded highlights for added (green) and deleted (red) content, plus counts of added and deleted lines. All processing runs locally in the user's browser by default, with no data saved to servers unless the user chooses to share a diff publicly or export it as a PDF. The tool also offers optional features including code beautification, syntax highlighting, search within diffs, and whitespace ignore settings, with no stated limits on the number of comparisons users can run.
