Plenty of systems still speak XML: SOAP services, government filing portals, payment gateways, older ERPs and configuration formats. This converter turns JSON into well-formed, indented XML: object keys become elements, arrays become repeated elements, and keys starting with "@" become attributes, so JSON that came from XML converts back to the original structure. Characters are escaped correctly and invalid element names are made safe rather than rejected.
Each item becomes a repeated element with the array's key as its name: {"tag": ["a", "b"]} gives <tag>a</tag><tag>b</tag>. A top-level array is wrapped as <root><item>…</item></root>.
Yes. Keys beginning with @ become attributes and "#text" becomes the element's text, the same convention XML to JSON uses.
Spaces and symbols are replaced with underscores, and names starting with a digit get a leading underscore, so the output is always well-formed.
As an empty element, such as <middleName/>.

- ·Wrap your data in a single top-level key to control the root element name
- ·Use @ keys when the system expects attributes rather than child elements
