# GumTree  [](https://coveralls.io/r/GumTreeDiff/gumtree?branch=master)
|
|
|
|
GumTree is a complete framework to deal with source code as trees and compute differences between them. It includes possibilities such as:
|
|
* converting a source file into a language-agnostic tree format
|
|
* export the produced trees in various formats
|
|
* compute the differences between the trees
|
|
* export these differences in various formats
|
|
* visualize these differences graphically
|
|
|
|
Compared to classical code differencing tools, it has two important particularities:
|
|
* it works on a tree structure rather than a text structure,
|
|
* it can detect moved or renamed elements in addition of deleted and inserted elements.
|
|
|
|
We already deal with a wide range of languages: Java, C, JavaScript and Ruby. More languages are coming soon, if you want to help contact [me](www.labri.fr/perso/falleri).
