I've released difftastic 0.63! In this release: * Better parsing of Elixir, LaTeX, Make, Nix, Rust and YAML * Better detecting of text encoding, especially on Windows * Prebuilt musl binaries, so you can run released binaries on older systems!

I've compiled the parser for my Garden programming language to wasm, so I can offer a web playground: https://www.garden-lang.org/ It's over 600KiB of wasm just for a function that returns a parse error message! I'm not sure if that's a lot (cf JS) or a little (cf typical binaries).

Distributing binaries built against musl is counter-intuitive to me. When I run them on my machine, they're dynamically linked to glibc! The main advantage AIUI is that you don't depend on new glibc features, so you get a more portable executable.
