Frequently asked questions
When should I minify XML?
For payloads sent over the network or stored in bulk. Keep formatted copies in source control for humans to edit.
Is the XML Minifier free?
Yes. It is free with no sign-up, and it runs entirely in your browser, so your input is never uploaded or stored.
Will formatting change how my code behaves?
Formatting only changes whitespace and layout. Minifying removes comments and whitespace and may shorten names, so keep the original source in version control.
