[aerogear-dev] [sync] Diff libraries

[Corinne Krych]

Rather than a text diff i’d like something that compares data structure (JSON like) diff.
I can use google diff by serialiazing to string but it’s a plain text diff rather than object diff. Guess you can patch the stringyfied object an then convert it back to json structure but less elegant and flexible than jsondiffpatch on object.
