Frequently Asked Questions
How are XML attributes handled in the conversion?
XML attributes are converted to JSON properties with an '@_' prefix. For example, <element attr="value"> becomes {"element": {"@_attr": "value"}}. This convention preserves the distinction between attributes and child elements.
Can I convert large XML files?
Yes, since all processing happens in your browser, you can convert XML files of any size that your browser can handle. For very large files, processing may take a moment.
Is my XML data secure?
Absolutely. All conversion happens entirely in your browser using JavaScript. No data is ever transmitted to any server. Your XML content remains completely private on your device.
Does the converter support XML namespaces?
Yes, the converter handles XML namespaces. Namespace prefixes are preserved in the resulting JSON property names.
