XML Formatter

XML Formatter

Description & Example

XML (eXtensible Markup Language) is a markup language designed to store and transport data. Unlike HTML, XML is used solely to describe data and its structure, making it a popular format for configuration files, data interchange, and more. However, XML files are often written in a single line or without clear indentation, which makes them difficult to read or debug.

This tool takes your raw XML input and formats it with proper indentation and line breaks. The result is much easier to understand and edit.

For example, if you input the following unformatted XML:

<note><to>Alice</to><from>Bob</from><heading>Reminder</heading><body>Don't forget our meeting!</body></note>

The tool will convert it into a neatly formatted version like:

<note>
  <to>Alice</to>
  <from>Bob</from>
  <heading>Reminder</heading>
  <body>Don't forget our meeting!</body>
</note>

This XML Formatter is useful for developers, system administrators, and anyone who works with XML files and needs to quickly reformat or validate them.
