Analyse electron to show the diff #11

Open rtfpessoa opened 8 years ago

Try to see if it is easy to integrate electron to draw the diff instead of the browser.

Although this is old, it sounds cool. I've wanted to work with electron for a while, but might be also a bit overkill :-)

Maybe just have a diff2html-ui project that wraps this in a electro UI. But I mostly use it in the terminal so I never got the need for this.

@rtfpessoa could you clarify what you had in mind?

Did you mean something like an electron app that allows the user to use a GUI to select a project folder and view the diff in the app? This would provide a simple refresh button and possibly some nice code folding, etc?

An electron app is overkill for this, but it's also very easy to create 🙆‍♂️

Please share your thoughts 😃

I don't remember exactly who, but someone gave this idea to me. It would be to have a some GUI to use the tool. It could just provide the visualization but also have features like receiving two strings and show the diff for them.

Overall overkill seems a nice description for this idea, but nonetheless I let it stay, if any day I had extra time to spend :smile:

Feel free to go at it
