• Show HN: Floro – Visual Version Control for static assets and strings

  > Did you ever get a chance to use their product? I wasn't a professional designer so never had a need for layervault, but it had quite a bit of polish for its time. Another app in the space has been https://kaleidoscope.app/ (Mac only) which is still around but doesn't market specifically to just images, I think the parent company has changed hands (was owned by Black Pixel, then Letter Opener GmbH, now owned by... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• Ask HN: Black Friday Discounts/Specials

  - [Kaleidoscope](https://kaleidoscope.app), my favorite diff tool, is 40% off with code BLACKFRIDAY23. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Keyboard Maestro 11

  MacOS is of course a Unix so it has support for CLI automation as well, and it's pretty common for macOS-exclusive applications to implement it where appropriate (e.g., https://kaleidoscope.app). It also has several other forms of automation: 1. AppleScript, which often makes it faster to implement powerful scripts than a CLI because AppleScript has objects (e.g., you can iterate through the tasks in OmniFocus for... - Source: Hacker News / 6 months ago

• Software Developer Mac Apps

  Kaleidoscope. The best comparison app out there. I used it in particular because at work we have a very different workflow which makes it hard to use other tools for comparison. I think it’s gotten pretty pricey though, so if I could avoid said workflow I’d probably use something else. Source: 12 months ago

• How to compare XML in a git commit?

  Https://kaleidoscope.app/ can probably get you a good looking diff but never tried for your usecase. I have been using it for 10 years now. Source: 12 months ago

• My programming language aware diff for VS Code and GitHub now supports Rust

  I am working on SemanticDiff, a programming language aware diff that hides style-only changes, detects moved code and refactorings. I just added support for Rust and would like to know what you think! Source: 5 months ago

• Prettier $20k Bounty was Claimed

  If you're looking for a VS Code extension or a GitHub app, check out https://semanticdiff.com/. I'm a co-founder of this project. If you prefer a CLI tool, check out https://github.com/Wilfred/difftastic. It supports more languages, but doesn't recognize when code has been replaced by an equivalent version ("invariances"). So it will show some changes (e.g.... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Large pull requests slow down development

  There are some tools that can separate actual code changes from reformatting changes. I am working on https://semanticdiff.com, a VS Code Extension / GitHub App that can help you with this. There is also difftastic if you prefer a CLI based solution. It supports more languages but can detect fewer types of reformatting changes. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Pijul: Version-Control Post-Git • Goto 2023

  I'm not familiar with Pijul, and haven't finished watching this presentation, but IME the problems with modern version control tools is that they still rely on comparing lines of plain text, something we've been doing for decades. Merge conflicts are an issue because our tools are agnostic about the actual content they're tracking. Instead, the tools should be smarter and work on the level of functions, classes,... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• My Visual Studio Code extension for programming language aware diffs is now in public beta!

  I posted about my extension SemanticDiff here a few months ago and received positive feedback, so I wanted to share an update with you: The beta version is now available for download! Source: about 1 year ago
