Frequently Asked Questions

Questions about this tool? We've got answers.

What is JSON Patch?

JSON Patch (RFC 6902) is a lightweight format for describing changes to a JSON document using operations like add, remove, replace, move, copy, and test.

Are nested changes detected?

Yes. The tool does a deep recursive comparison to detect changes at any nesting level, generating precise paths for each operation.

Is my data sent to a server?

No. All comparison runs 100% inside your browser via a Web Worker.
