How to use

Paste two JSON objects (or load a sample), then optionally format or swap.
Pick an array diff mode (index/set/key), then use inline filters (type/value/path).
Click any diff path to jump into the tree explorer and compare left/right values.
Export reports, share a link, or generate a JSON Patch / merged output.

FAQ & privacy

Does this run locally? Yes. Diffing happens in your browser; nothing is uploaded.

What’s supported? JSON objects (non-array) with nested values; arrays diff by index, as sets, or by key field.

How do I explore changes? Use the tree diff view to expand nodes and compare left/right values side by side.

Large inputs? For very large JSON, a warning appears and diff output may truncate for readability.
