* Package name : node-fast-diff Version : 1.1.2 Upstream Author : Jason Chen <jhch...@gmail.com> * URL : https://github.com/jhchen/fast-diff#readme * License : Apache-2.0 Programming Lang: JavaScript Description : Fast Javascript text diff . A simplified import of the excellent diff-match-patch library by Neil Fraser into the Node.js environment. The match and patch parts are removed, as well as all the extra diff options. What remains is incredibly fast diffing between two strings. . The diff function is an implementation of "An O(ND) Difference Algorithm and its Variations" (Myers, 1986) with the suggested divide and conquer strategy along with several optimizations. . Node.js is an event-based server-side JavaScript engine. . It is a simplified import of diff-match-patch library which makes diffing between two strings incredibly fast. . I would like to maintain this package as part of the JavaScript packaging team. Praveen has offered to sponsor this package.
