Why convert XML to YAML?

Legacy systems speak XML, modern configs speak YAML. Paste an XML document above and get the equivalent YAML mapping in an instant, repeated elements becoming lists automatically.

How it works

The converter validates and parses your XML locally, then re-serializes the structure as YAML with the indentation you pick. Attributes are kept under @_ keys (toggle them off if you only care about element content), and values like numbers keep their type.

Frequently asked questions

Is my XML data uploaded to a server?
No. Everything runs entirely in your browser with JavaScript. Nothing is sent over the network, which makes the tool safe for sensitive data.
How are XML attributes handled?
Attributes are preserved as @_ prefixed keys by default, mirroring the XML to JSON tool. Disable the Attributes option to drop them from the output.
