Frequently Asked Questions
What is XML beautification?
XML beautification reformats compact or hand-written XML into a human-readable structure with proper indentation and line breaks.
How to format minified XML code online?
Paste the minified XML into the input and the tool outputs a properly indented, readable version instantly.
What is valid XML syntax?
Valid XML requires a single root element, properly nested tags, quoted attribute values, and no unclosed elements — unlike HTML, XML is case-sensitive.
What is the difference between XML and JSON?
XML uses opening and closing tags and supports attributes; JSON uses key-value pairs with a simpler syntax. JSON is lighter; XML is more expressive and supports comments and namespaces.
What is the difference between XML beautify and XML minify?
Beautify expands XML for readability during development; minify compresses it by removing whitespace for smaller file size in production.
Does the XML Beautifier send my document to a remote server?
No. The browser's built-in DOMParser handles all formatting locally — your XML never leaves your device.
