What Diff Suite is

Diff Suite is a free browser tool for comparing and merging two text files. It updates the differences as you type and shows both versions side by side. Red and green arrows let you move changes between panes. An edit menu can sort or reverse lines, remove empty or duplicate lines, trim whitespace, and turn line breaks into spaces. You can open local TXT, Markdown, CSV, JSON, XML, YAML, HTML, JavaScript, Python, and log files. The maker says comparison and merging run locally in the browser, without sending input text to its servers; its privacy policy says it does not collect personal information from users. Diff Suite works in browsers on macOS, Linux, ChromeOS, and Windows, and the maker says it supports phones and tablets. Text Compare Plus, also described as free, adds find, replace, and copy buttons. The free plan requires no sign-up and has no usage limits. Diff Suite handles two-way text comparison, not folder comparison.
