Convert XML to JSON for use in modern JavaScript, REST APIs, and document stores. The converter parses the XML with the browser’s DOMParser, then walks the tree: each element becomes an object keyed by its tag name, attributes become @-prefixed properties, and repeated child elements collapse into JSON arrays.
When an element has both attributes and text content, the text lives under #text alongside the @-prefixed attribute keys (the standard convention used by libraries like xml2js). Output can be pretty-printed for readability or minified to save bytes. Useful for migrating SOAP/RSS feeds into JSON-based pipelines without writing custom parsing code.
Two or more siblings with the same name become a JSON array; a single child remains a plain key. Force-array mode keeps every child as an array even when there’s only one — useful when downstream code expects consistent shapes.
Each attribute becomes a key prefixed with @ (e.g. {"@id": "3"}). When an element has both attributes and text content, the text lives under the #text key alongside the attribute entries.
By default the prefix is included in the key (e.g. "ns:tag"). You can choose to strip namespace prefixes if your downstream consumer doesn’t need them.
No — parsing uses the browser’s built-in DOMParser and the conversion is local JavaScript.
