GUI version?

[codec-abc]

Hi,

Cool project you have here!

I wonder if you thought about doing a GUI version of difftastic for those who prefer working with GUI over terminal.
Do you have something in mind for this?

I'm interested in providing HTML output #45 and making difftastic usable as a library #216, but I'm not interested in building a GUI application myself. I'd definitely mention any applications supporting difftastic in the readme though :)

Can it be included in an existing tool? It'd be cool (and reduce diplication!!) if, e.g., meld or kdiff could swap backends and just call into difftastic to perform the diff.

Kompare does allow specifying a custom command, but think it needs a diff-compatible output to parse.

Communicating with an IDE such as VS Code might also be a good first step, with less overhead.
