XML Diff FAQ

How is XML Diff different from text diff?

XML Diff validates both inputs as XML and compares them line by line after XML-aware whitespace normalization. It is better suited to XML documents than plain text comparison.

Can I compare invalid XML?

No. Both sides must be valid XML before comparison. If either input is malformed, the tool shows which side needs fixing.

What kinds of changes are highlighted?

The tool highlights added, removed, and modified XML lines. This makes it useful for config updates, feed revisions, and markup reviews.
