About the XML Formatter & Validator

Our XML Formatter & Validator is an essential tool for developers, system administrators, and anyone working with XML documents. It provides real-time validation, formatting, and error detection to help you work with XML more efficiently. Whether you're debugging SOAP web services, configuring applications, or preparing data for transmission, this tool ensures your XML is well-formed and properly formatted.

The tool offers flexible formatting options including 2-space and 4-space indentation for readable output, or minification for production use. Real-time validation provides immediate feedback with detailed error messages, including line and column numbers to help you quickly identify and fix syntax issues. The formatter intelligently handles nested elements, attributes, CDATA sections, and comments while preserving data integrity.

What makes our XML tool special is its user-friendly interface combined with powerful validation capabilities. It includes quick-access sample XML examples for testing, instant copy-to-clipboard functionality, and support for large XML documents. The tool is perfect for web service development, configuration management, data transformation, and educational purposes where understanding XML structure is important.

Your data privacy is completely protected as all XML processing happens locally in your browser using the built-in DOMParser. No XML data is ever transmitted to our servers or stored anywhere, ensuring that sensitive configuration files, credentials, or proprietary data remain confidential. The tool works entirely offline and provides instant results without any external dependencies.
