How is this different from a text diff?

Our diff tool understands JSON structure. It compares keys and values semantically, so reordering keys won't show as changes. It identifies added, removed, and modified fields at every level.

Does it handle nested objects?

Yes! The diff recursively compares nested objects and arrays, showing the exact path where differences occur.

Can it compare arrays?

Yes, arrays are compared element by element. Added and removed elements are clearly highlighted.

Does it work with large JSON files?

Yes, the comparison runs entirely in your browser and handles large JSON documents efficiently.
