Jira Diff Highlighter

Improves readability of Jira ticket diffs.

Jira Diff Highlighter is a browser extension for Chrome, Edge, and Firefox that enhances the readability of Jira issue description diffs. It transforms standard Jira diffs into a more user-friendly, side-by-side comparison with highlighted changes.

Key Features:

• Enhanced Diff View: Transforms standard Jira diffs into a readable side-by-side comparison.
• Highlighted Changes: Clearly see additions, deletions, and modifications with color-coded highlights.
• Configurable Large Change Handling: Choose the character limit for collapsing large insertions or deletions, keeping long Jira updates readable without cluttering the page.
• Show Full Text: Expand any collapsed large change inline when you need to inspect the full insertion or deletion.
• Toggle On/Off: Switch between enhanced and original diff views from the extension popup.
• Multi-Tab Support: Maintains consistent state across multiple Jira tabs.
• Custom Jira Domains: Atlassian-hosted Jira works automatically, and custom Jira domains can be enabled with explicit per-site access.

Perfect for:

• Developers reviewing code changes
• Project managers tracking requirement updates
• QA testers following bug report modifications
• Anyone who frequently works with Jira issue descriptions

Jira Diff Highlighter works automatically on Atlassian-hosted Jira instances using atlassian.net subdomains. If your team uses Jira on a custom domain, you can add that domain from the extension popup and grant access only to that site.
