Native XML editor, viewer, formatter, XPath, XSD, XSLT, convert, diff, and local merge. Files stay on your Mac.
XML Lens is a private, native XML workbench for macOS. Open files locally and move from raw XML to a clear result without sending data to a server.
EDIT AND FORMAT
Edit source with syntax highlighting while the synchronized tree and inspector keep every node, attribute and value in context. Beautify or minify in one step.
VALIDATE AND QUERY
Validate documents against XSD schemas. Run namespace-aware XPath queries, inspect exact matches and save expressions you use often.
TRANSFORM AND CONVERT
Preview XSLT 1.0 transformations. Convert between XML, JSON, YAML and CSV while keeping the workflow on your Mac.
COMPARE AND MERGE
Compare XML side by side, review meaningful changes and export reports. Merge up to five local XML files with wrap or combine after well-formedness checks. Batch-format, validate, transform or convert multiple files without overwriting the originals.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your files stay on-device. XML Lens does not upload your documents.
XML Lens includes a 10-day full trial. After the trial, a one-time Pro purchase unlocks the app. No subscription.

Great app, but lacks the full XSD support
Aektann
Awesome native tool to work with XML/XSLT/XSD documents. I’m especially grateful for the recent XSD Viewer option addition.I’m still waiting for the full graphical XSD scheme viewer, yet this is the great start!
