JSON Diff - Technical Details

JSON diff performs a deep comparison of two JSON structures, checking each property recursively. Unlike text diff, it understands JSON semantics - property order doesn't matter, and nested objects are compared properly. Useful for API response comparison and configuration changes.

Command-line Alternative

# JSON diff with jq\njq -n --slurpfile a old.json --slurpfile b new.json '$a[0] != $b[0]'\n\n# With Python\nimport json\njson.load(open('a.json')) == json.load(open('b.json'))
