Investigate a HTML alternative presenter that dynamically renders the diff using Javascript

This is motivated by, for example, the HTML for nanomsg_1.1.5+dfsg-1 being 274KiB whilst the JSON is 3323 bytes, when compressed, expanding to only 19KiB when uncompressed (yet pretty-printed).

It may even be:

  • Faster to render (would definitely be faster time to first-paint)
  • Support lazily rendering

Would not, for obvious reason, be the default output format.

To upload designs, you'll need to enable LFS and have an admin enable hashed storage. More information
