This is a port of [java-diff-utils](https://github.com/java-diff-utils/java-diff-utils) to Kotlin with multiplatform support.  

All credit for the implementation goes to the original authors.

## Features

All features from version `4.15` of the original library are present, except for:

- fuzzy patches

- unified diff, which heavily uses file read/write and therefore needs a more complicated rewrite

- diff-utils-jgit, which uses JVM-only JGit

Refer to the [original wiki][1] for more information.

## Supported platforms

- JVM

- JS (browser and Node.js)

- WebAssembly (WASM/JS and WASM/WASI)

- Native

Supported Native targets are (following the Kotlin/Native [target support guidelines][2]):

| Tier 1     | Tier 2     | Tier 3   |

|:-----------|:-----------|:---------|

| macosX64   | linuxX64   | mingwX64 |

| macosArm64 | linuxArm64 |          |
