latexdiff 不用开终端了
latexdiff, minus the terminal
LaTeXdiff Online
写 LaTeX 的人都知道 latexdiff
但也都知道装它有多烦
现在,浏览器里就能跑
Every LaTeX user knows latexdiff — and knows
the pain of actually installing it. Now it
runs right in your browser
上传 ZIP,直接 diff
Upload ZIP, get diff
latexdiff 用来标记两个版本之间的改动
给导师或期刊审稿人看特别合适
但正常流程要装 Perl、装依赖
开终端敲命令——大多数人装完一次就忘了怎么用
下次还得 Google
latexdiff marks up changes between two drafts —
perfect for supervisors and journal reviewers. But the
normal workflow needs Perl, a pile of dependencies
and the command line. Most people install it
once, forget how, and Google the same tutorial
next time
★ SIGNAL 1
支持整包 ZIP 上传
Handles full project ZIPs
真写过论文的人都知道
LaTeX 项目不是一个 .tex 文件了事——chapters
figures
bib 文件散得到处都是
这个工具直接接受 .zip 上传
两个版本的完整项目目录一起 diff
就这一个细节
你就知道作者是真的写过论文的
Anyone who's actually written a thesis knows LaTeX
projects aren't one .tex file — you've got
chapters/, figures/, .bib scattered everywhere. This tool accepts
full .zip uploads and diffs two complete project
directories. That one detail tells you the author
has written a real thesis
★ SIGNAL 2
Perl 跑在浏览器里
Perl runs in the browser
latexdiff 本质上是个 Perl 脚本
这个工具把它跑在了浏览器端——没有服务器处理
你的论文草稿不会上传到任何地方
而且是用 Claude Code 搞出来的
Reddit 上反响不错
作者本人还挺得意
latexdiff is fundamentally a Perl script. This tool
runs it client-side — no server processing, your
drafts never leave your machine. Built with Claude
Code. Reddit users loved it, and the author
is clearly proud of the reception
作者在 HN 发帖的标题就是「Reddit users loved it」——这种不藏着掖着的骄傲
比任何宣传话术都真实
一个独立开发者做出了 LaTeX 社区真正需要的东西
然后大大方方说出来,挺好的
The HN post title literally says 'Reddit users
loved it' — that kind of unapologetic pride
is more real than any marketing copy. An
indie dev built something the LaTeX community actually
needed, and said so out loud. Respect
