How to compare two Markdown versions

To compare two Markdown versions, paste the original text on one side and the updated text on the other. The viewer computes a source-level diff and highlights added, removed, and changed lines so you can see precisely what moved between the two versions.

Because the diff works on the Markdown source rather than rendered HTML, small but important edits stay obvious, a changed heading level, an edited link target, a flipped checklist item, or a tweaked table cell. You can also copy a change summary to drop into a review note or commit message.

All comparison happens locally in your browser. Neither version is uploaded to a server, so you can safely diff private drafts, internal docs, or unreleased changelogs.

  • Paste the updated Markdown
  • Review the highlighted source diff
  • Copy the change summary

Why a source-first diff

Rendered Markdown diffs can hide small but meaningful changes, because two different sources can render to similar-looking output. A source-first diff keeps headings, links, checklists, and table edits clearly visible, which is exactly what reviewers need.

This makes the viewer well suited to README and changelog reviews, where you care about the literal Markdown that will be committed, not just the visual result. It helps catch accidental link breakage, heading shifts, and list changes before they ship.

The first version focuses on source-text diffing only, keeping the comparison fast, predictable, and easy to trust.
