Myers Difference Algorithm & Longest Common Subsequence
KlypX computes difference graphs using Eugene Myers' algorithm, the same foundation powering GNU diff and Git. The algorithm models text comparison as a graph search for the Longest Common Subsequence (LCS), finding the shortest edit script that transforms text A into text B with minimal insertions and deletions.
Side-by-Side vs. Unified Diff Views
Developers can toggle between side-by-side split comparison (ideal for code reviews and configuration comparisons) and inline unified view (ideal for narrow mobile screens and copy-pasting into commit summaries).
