The Myers Diff algorithm finds the minimum operations (equals, insert, delete) needed to transform one text into another. This ColdFusion implementation works in two phases: building a matrix to track steps through the cross-product of original and modified text, then backtracing to find the shortest path. The component exposes methods for both string and array-based diffing, with support for nested character-level diffs within line changes. The implementation prioritizes readability over optimization, storing extra metadata in each matrix entry to make the algorithm easier to understand.
