Imagine you have uncommited changes in your git repository and want to preview them before commiting.

Type differ and get browser-based, efficient UI for previewing the changes. Inception shot:

Use j/k for next/previous file.

You can also diff 2 directories: differ ${dir1} ${dir2}

Differ is a port of https://github.com/danvk/webdiff from Python to Go.

Mac binary: differ

Must chmod ug+x differ after downloading to mark it as executable.

Pre-requisites:

• node, for getting JavaScript libraries used in the front-end. brew install node on mac.
• zopfli (brew install zopfli on mac) for maximum compression of front-end assets

Build steps:

• go get -u github.com/gophergala2016/kjkteam or git clone https://github.com/gophergala2016/kjkteam.git
• npm install to get the needed JavaScript libraries for the front-end
• scripts/build.sh to build a self-contained differ executable
