Frequently Asked Questions
Does XML minification remove comments?
Comments should be preserved unless the tool explicitly provides an option to remove them.
Can whitespace inside text content be important?
Yes. Whitespace inside text nodes can be meaningful, so the minifier should avoid changing text content and only remove formatting whitespace where it is safe.
Is my XML uploaded?
No. XML processing runs locally in your browser.
