Built with Electron, React, and TypeScript.\n\n![License](https://img.shields.io/github/license/otaviosoaresp/what-the-fork)\n\n## Features\n\n- **Branch Comparison** - Compare any two branches with a clean, GitHub-style interface\n- **Diff Visualization** - Split and unified view modes with syntax highlighting\n- **Branch Management** - Create, checkout, and delete branches\n- **Favorites** - Mark frequently used branches as favorites for quick access\n- **Search \u0026 Filter** - Quickly find branches and files\n- **File Navigation** - Navigate between changed files with keyboard-friendly controls\n- **Staging Area** - Stage, unstage, and commit changes\n- **Remote Operations** - Fetch, pull, and push with visual feedback\n\n## Screenshots\n\n\u003cimg width=\"1710\" height=\"1336\" alt=\"image\" src=\"https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/22f61db3-308d-4dd3-97cd-48e7909648fe\" /\u003e\n\n## Installation\n\n### From Source\n\n```bash\n# Clone the repository\ngit clone https://github.com/otaviosoaresp/what-the-fork.git\ncd what-the-fork\n\n# Set the correct node version\nnvm use\n\n# Install dependencies\nnpm install\n\n# Run in development mode\nnpm run dev\n\n# Build for production\nnpm run build\n```\n\n## Tech Stack\n\n| Layer | Technology |\n|-------|------------|\n| Runtime | Electron |\n| Frontend | React 18 + TypeScript |\n| Build | Vite |\n| Styling | Tailwind CSS |\n| State | Zustand |\n| Git | CLI (spawn) |\n\n## Usage\n\n1. Open the application\n2. Select a Git repository folder\n3. Click on a branch to set it as the **base** (shown in green)\n4. Click on another branch to compare (shown in blue)\n5. View the diff and navigate between changed files\n\n### Branch Comparison\n\nThe comparison header shows:\n- **compare** (blue) - Source branch with changes\n- **base** (green) - Target branch where changes would be merged\n\nUse the swap button to invert the comparison direction.\n\n## Development\n\n```bash\n# Start development server\nnpm run dev\n\n# Type check\nnpm run typecheck\n\n# Build application\nnpm run build\n```\n\n## Contributing\n\nContributions are welcome!
