Frequently Asked Questions

Is my code or text uploaded?

No. All comparison happens in your browser using a local LCS algorithm. Nothing is sent to any server.

What is the maximum text size?

Up to ~2000 lines per side without performance issues. Very large files (10K+ lines each) may slow down due to the O(n×m) LCS computation.

Can I compare files?

Paste file contents directly into the text areas. For binary file comparison, use a desktop tool like git diff or Beyond Compare.
