What is a .XML file?
XML is a flexible markup language for structured data.
- Did you know
- XML became a W3C standard in 1998 and underpins countless file formats, including DOCX and SVG.
- XML is a simplified subset of the older SGML, stripped down so it could be served and parsed easily on the web.
- It was designed around Unicode from the start, letting documents mix scripts and languages from across the world.
- XML defines no tags of its own; authors invent their own element names, which is what makes it “extensible”.
- A .XML file is plain text, so you can open and edit it in any text editor.
- What Analyser shows you
- Preview and inspect HTML, CSS, JavaScript, TypeScript, JSON, YAML, XML, and Markdown source files.
- Open a .XML file
- Drag a .XML file onto the Analyser home page (or tap to pick one). It opens entirely in your browser - nothing is uploaded, there is no account, and it works offline once installed.
