Folder comparison is more useful for those who are not currently programming or working with extensive text documentation. Here, too, Meld highlights the differences in color. A better overview creates a practical function to hide the same content. You can also display new and changed files in a targeted manner. So you can easily see differences in large folders.
Practical: If Meld encounters different versions of text files, you can use the context menu to start a file comparison directly from the folder comparison.
