Quick Start

using FolderDiffIL4DotNet.Core.IO;
using FolderDiffIL4DotNet.Core.Text;
using FolderDiffIL4DotNet.Core.Diagnostics;

// Compare two files by SHA256 hash
bool areEqual = FileComparer.CompareByHash("file1.dll", "file2.dll");

// Line-by-line diff using Myers algorithm
var diffs = TextDiffer.ComputeDiff(oldLines, newLines);

// Detect if a file is a .NET assembly
var result = DotNetDetector.Detect("MyApp.dll");
if (result.Status == DotNetExecutableDetectionStatus.DotNetExecutable)
    Console.WriteLine(".NET assembly detected");

// Validate a file path
bool isValid = PathValidator.IsValidPath(@"C:\MyProject\bin\Release");

// Detect file encoding
var encoding = EncodingDetector.Detect("data.csv");
