JSON Diff (deep)
Paste two JSON docs; see a **live deep diff** β added, removed and changed paths highlighted by colour, arrays compared by index, one-click diff-report copy. Pure frontend, no upload.

| Path | Left value | Right value |
|---|---|---|
| ~$ | {"name":"Alice","age":30,"tags":["a","b"]} | {"name":"Alice","age":31,"tags":["a","c"],"active":true} |
| ~$.age | 30 | 31 |
| ~$.tags | ["a","b"] | ["a","c"] |
| ~$.tags[1] | "b" | "c" |
| +$.active | true |
βΊHow to use
- Left = old JSON, Right = new JSON (empty input is treated as
null). - The diff table updates live. + green = added, β red = removed, ~ amber = changed.
- The header chips show stats; toggle Show unchanged fields to see the complete tree.
- Copy diff report for a plain-text summary you can paste into a PR description, Linear or Slack.
Tips
- Paths use JSONPath style β
$.user.tags[0]is human-friendly and works directly with jq / lodash get / Postman. - Arrays diff by index (LCS is expensive). If you just re-ordered items, everything looks
changed; sort both sides first for a cleaner diff. - Type changes (e.g.
{}β1) are reported aschangedwithout deep inspection. - vs jsondiff.com β they show ads; we're pure functions in your browser with zero upload.
π‘ Diff runs entirely in your browser. Great for comparing production vs staging API responses, config-file audits, regression baselines.
