- BlazeDiff is a high-performance diff ecosystem for JavaScript applications.
- Originally built as a pixel-perfect image comparison library, it's 1.5x faster than pixelmatch.
- Includes tools for image comparison, object diffing, perceptual quality metrics, and visualization components.
- Key packages: @blazediff/bin (fastest image diff), @blazediff/core, @blazediff/object, @blazediff/ssim, @blazediff/gmsd, @blazediff/cli, @blazediff/react, @blazediff/ui.
- Performance improvements: 3-4x faster than odiff, 8x faster than pixelmatch on 4K images, ~50% faster than pixelmatch in JS.
- Perceptual quality metrics based on research: SSIM, MS-SSIM, Hitchhiker's SSIM, GMSD.
- Documentation, examples, and benchmarks available.
