RIbbonDiff for Mac

Compare two versions of text and understand every change at a glance—perfect for code snippets, config files, logs, and document edits.

RibbonDiff for macOS is a fast, distraction-free text comparison tool built for clarity. A clean side-by-side editor shows differences instantly as you type or paste, while RibbonDiff’s signature visual change ribbon links related edits across both panes—so you never lose your place, even in large or complex diffs.

Highlights include:

• Line-by-line and in-line highlighting for added, removed, and modified text
• A visual change ribbon that connects corresponding changes across both sides
• Independent Find fields for the Original and Modified panes
• Optional line numbers and a one-click word wrap toggle for long lines
• Built-in syntax coloring for common formats, including Swift, JSON, XML, Python, JavaScript, and more
• Fully customizable colors and backgrounds, with theme import and export via JSON
• macOS window tabs to keep multiple comparisons neatly organized

Whether you’re reviewing a quick edit or auditing a large block of text, RibbonDiff helps you focus on what changed—and nothing else.

Paste your “before” and “after,” search with precision, and review changes confidently with a Mac-native experience designed to stay out of your way.
