What is a Text Diff Tool?

A Text Diff (Difference) Tool is a utility that compares two pieces of text and identifies whether they are identical or different. It's an essential tool for developers, writers, and anyone who needs to verify changes between document versions or code files.

Text diff tools are commonly used for:

  • Code Review: Comparing different versions of code to spot changes
  • Document Verification: Checking if two documents are identical
  • Quality Assurance: Ensuring content hasn't been accidentally modified
  • Version Control: Understanding what changed between file versions

While simple diff tools show whether texts match, advanced diff tools can highlight specific differences line-by-line or character-by-character. This tool provides a quick way to verify if two text inputs are identical, which is useful for validation, testing, and quality control purposes.
