- A few times a week I find myself turning to diff checker websites to compare snippets of text or JSON, but I've always found their UIs clunky or unnecessarily complicated. I set out to build a simpler option with a pleasing UI. Features that mattered to me: - Client-side only diff that never leaves the browser - Clear indicator when text is identical - Text

# Design Brief: Minimal Monochrome (with Retro & Nostalgic)
Monochrome palette with a single accent color, hairline dividers, and generous whitespace.
## Design Tokens
```css
:root {
--background: #e9e9e9;
--surface: #ffffff;
--foreground: #171717;
--muted-foreground: #777777;
--accent: #8fe68b;
--radius: 0px;
--font-heading: "monospace", ui-monospace, monospace;
--font-body: "monospace", ui-monospace, monospace;
--font-mono: "monospace", ui-monospace, monospace;
}
```
Color area ratio: Background #E9E9E9 (~78%) · Surface #FFFFFF (~14%) · Text #171717 (~4%) · Muted Text #777777 (~3%) · Accent #8FE68B (~1%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.

- Navigation: Minimal Logo + Action
- Theme & density: Light · Balanced
- Border radius & elevation: Sharp; no drop shadows—separate layers with hairline borders and whitespace
- Primary visual medium: Interactive Hero Demo / Tool
- Conversion CTA: Direct Input / Instant Try
- Headline hook: Category Positioning Anchor

## Avoid
- Multi-stop neon gradients
