Frequently asked questions
Can I minify XML?
Yes. The Minify option strips all whitespace and produces the smallest possible valid XML.
Does it validate the XML while formatting?
Yes. If the XML is malformed, the formatter shows the exact error location rather than silently failing.
Is my data sent to a server?
No. All formatting runs locally in your browser.
What indentation options are available?
2 spaces, 4 spaces, or tab (\t) indentation.
Can I handle large XML files?
Yes. Hundreds of kilobytes format instantly. Very large files (10MB+) may take a second.
