FAQ

What does an XML formatter do?

An XML formatter restructures messy or minified XML into properly indented, human-readable output while preserving the original structure and content.

Does it validate XML syntax?

The formatter checks for basic structural issues like unclosed tags. However, it does not validate against XML Schema (XSD) or DTD definitions.

Can it handle large XML files?

The tool works client-side in your browser. Very large files (10+ MB) may cause performance issues depending on your device's memory.
