Hi HN! We were frustrated with text diffs on GitHub PRs, so we made DiffLens (
https://github.com/marketplace/difflens). DiffLens constructs an Abstract Syntax Tree for each file, and uses that semantic information to intelligently diff changes. Checkout the demo on our website (
https://www.difflens.com).
Getting started with DiffLens is easy! Simply install the app on your repositories. The next time you open a PR, DiffLens will automatically create a diff for your changes. If you review code, especially TypeScript, JavaScript or CSS, give DiffLens a try!
We're always looking for feedback. If you encounter bugs, or want to give us feedback, we'll be around. You can also reach us at support@difflens.com.
