Code Block

Split Compare

Two versions of a file side by side: before on the left, after on the right, line facing line, and an empty slot is an explicit placeholder, not a lost piece of code.

React + Tailwind, shadcn-compatible: press “Copy for AI” and your Cursor or Claude Code agent installs it with the shadcn CLI.

What you can change

  • the compared rows through the rows array
  • the file path through path
  • the pane captions through beforeLabel and afterLabel

A link for your AI agent: preview, code and instructions.

FAQ

How do I add Split Compare with Cursor or Claude Code?
Press “Copy for AI” on this page and paste it into your agent's chat. The instruction contains the shadcn CLI install command, the dependencies and what to keep, so the agent installs this exact component instead of recreating a lookalike.
What does Split Compare depend on?
No npm packages beyond React and Tailwind CSS.
What can I change in Split Compare?
Adapt: the compared rows through the rows array; the file path through path; the pane captions through beforeLabel and afterLabel. Keep as installed: the local --vibeui-codeblock-024-* palette — do not swap it for your theme tokens; the placeholders for missing rows: without them the other pane slides up and the comparison breaks; the sign in the pane caption next to the colour: a tint alone is unreadable for colour blindness.
Is Split Compare free?
Yes. The preview is open without an account; with a free account you can copy up to 20 components a month.

For developers

npx shadcn@latest add https://vibeui.club/r/pro/codeblock-024.json

This command needs a signed link: sign in and open “Component source” below — it issues a working link valid for 30 minutes. All install options

Technical notes

The component is self-contained: one file, zero dependencies, its own palette in the local --vibeui-codeblock-024-* variables. Server component: no hooks. The panes get the same rows array, so the lines always stand opposite each other; a missing line is drawn as a placeholder with a different surface, and the number counter skips it — the numbering stays correct for each version separately. The layout is computed from the block's own width: below 34rem the panes stack one under the other, beyond that they split the width in half, and the rules sit on the inner [data-part="shell"].
