Gleb, Alex, Erez and Simon here – we are building an open-source tool for comparing data within and across databases at any scale. The repo is at https://github.com/datafold/data-diff, and our home page is https://datafold.com/. As a company, Datafold builds tools for data engineers to automate the most tedious and error-prone tasks falling through the cracks of the modern data stack, such as data testing and lineage. We launched two years ago with a tool for regression-testing changes to ETL code…

Hey HN, I got tired of manually comparing two lists (think: emails, product SKUs, code, whatever) and built CompareLists.org to make it painless. You just paste your two lists, hit compare, and instantly see what’s unique to each list, what matches, and any duplicates. It handles thousands of lines, works right in your browser (no data leaves your device), and you can export results as CSV/TXT/JSON. There are options for case sensitivity, whitespace, and more. It’s free and there’s no signup. I’d love for you to try it out and let me know what you think—or if there’s a feature you…

Think interactive grep for text files, PDFs, DOCXs, etc, but word/token based instead of regex and line based, so you can search across lines easily. Docfd aims to provide good UX via integration with common text editors and PDF viewers, so you can jump directly to a search result with a single key press. --- I originally wrote this tool to help me dig through text/markdown notes, since very often I want to search for a phrase of sorts that may span across multiple lines, but constructing the corresponding multiline regex is a bit painful (especially painful if I want to account…

Took a stab at building my own string diffing JS package. I built an interactive demo for TypeIt’s website (https://typeitjs.com/build-your-own) a while back. The approach I took to handle user input necessitated a way to calculate the difference between the versions of a user’s text input. I searched around for a package to help me out and found a couple of good ones (like fast-diff), but I either didn’t really like their API or didn’t want to take on a huge new dependency. Instead, I thought I’d give it a shot myself (famous last words). I dove into it having no real formal…

Built a minimal diff checker with merge feature. 1. Supports 25K+ lines. 2. Character level instant diff. 3. Diff merge feature. 4. Share able links. 5. 100% secure, all diff computation happens in browser. No other website offering high quality diff checker and merge feature with just browser only implementation. Please review the website in detail and share feedback.

deff is an interactive Rust TUI for reviewing git diffs side-by-side with syntax highlighting and added/deleted line tinting. It supports keyboard/mouse navigation, vim-style motions, in-diff search (/, n, N), per-file reviewed toggles, and both upstream-based and explicit --base/--head comparisons. It can also include uncommitted + untracked files (--include-uncommitted) so you can review your working tree before committing. Would love to get some feedback

I built a terminal diff viewer for a workflow I couldn't do comfortably with existing tools: reviewing AI-generated code changes without leaving the terminal session where the agent runs, annotating what needs to change, and feeding those annotations straight back to the agent. Plenty of diff viewers exist, and some can even feed notes back to an agent, but none of them fit that flow for me - they pulled me out of the terminal into a separate app, or the round-trip back to the agent was clunky. Revdiff is how I solved it. From a Claude Code session I type `/revdiff main` or just say…
