Using the Editor
You can install nodes directly within the editor by selecting the Manage Palette option from the main menu to open the Palette Manager.
The ‘Nodes’ tab lists all of the modules you have installed. It shows which you are using and whether updates are available for any of them.
The ‘Install’ tab lets you search the catalogue of available node modules and install them.

- compare old and new string or array or json or etc
- jsdiff wrapper
javascript
msg = {};
msg.targetObject = 'diffSentences';
msg.oldValue = 'string';
msg.newValue = 'sttring';
msg.targetObject = 'diffJson';
msg.oldValue = {
'name': 'naver',
'value' : 1
}
msg.newValue = {
'name' : 'naver',
'value' : 2
}
