Why use this tool

Frequently asked questions

Will formatting change my XML's meaning?

No. Only whitespace and indentation change; elements, attributes, and order are preserved.

Why is my XML invalid?

Common causes are unclosed tags, mismatched names, or stray characters before the root element. The error points to the problem.

Is my XML private?

Yes. Formatting runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
