Universal Language & Project Detection (v1.6.0)
DevDiff v1.6.0 includes Universal Project Detection (UniversalProjectDetector). DevDiff can analyze any software repository, script folder, or workspace regardless of whether it uses package.json, build systems, or standard directory conventions.
Multi-Tier Project Topology Matrix

Key Architectural Guarantees
- ✅ No
package.jsonrequired: Operates out-of-the-box on single-file scripts or vanilla HTML/CSS/JS projects. - ✅ 60+ Languages Supported: Pre-mapped file extension registry covering all popular programming languages.
- ✅ Automatic Binary Filtering: Gracefully skips binary assets (
.png,.jpg,.pdf,.wasm,.exe). - ✅ Monorepo Auto-Partitioning: Automatically chunks multi-package diffs to fit model context bounds.
