Developers often deal with data in multiple formats — JSON, CSV, YAML, and yes, XML. While JSON has become the modern standard, XML still powers many APIs, configuration files, and legacy systems. Reading XML in raw form can feel overwhelming, especially when working with deeply nested nodes.
That’s why we’ve extended our JSON Viewer Tool to support XML visualization. 🚀
Why Visualize XML?
XML is structured but not always human-friendly. Visualizing it helps you:
Quickly understand hierarchies and relationships.
Spot patterns in large or complex XML files.
Transform XML data into interactive graphs and trees for better exploration.
Compare XML with other formats (JSON, YAML, CSV) in a single workspace.
How It Works
Upload your XML file directly into the tool.
The viewer automatically parses your XML into a structured format.
Explore your data in:
Tree View: See the hierarchy clearly.
Graph View: Visualize nodes and relationships interactively.
Table View: Flatten structured XML for tabular analysis.
Use Cases
Debugging API responses from XML-based services.
Analyzing configurations (like .plist, .svg, or Android manifest.xml).
Converting XML data to JSON/YAML for modern applications.
Teaching or presenting how XML structures work with diagrams.
Final Thoughts
Whether you’re migrating from XML to JSON or just need a better way to make sense of complex XML documents, our JSON Viewer Tool makes it easier with clean visualizations
Try 👉 jsonviewer.tools uploading your XML file today and instantly turn text into diagrams.
