Frequently Asked Questions

How does the array mode work?

The array mode controls how repeated XML elements are handled. Auto mode creates arrays for multiple elements, Always mode forces arrays even for single elements, and Never mode always creates objects.

What types are automatically detected?

The converter automatically detects and converts numbers (integers and decimals), booleans (true/false), and preserves strings. This ensures the YAML output maintains proper data types.

Is my data secure?

Yes, all conversion happens entirely in your browser. No data is sent to any server, ensuring your sensitive information remains private and secure.

What is flow style YAML?

Flow style is a more compact YAML representation that uses braces and brackets similar to JSON. It's useful when you want to minimize the number of lines in your YAML output.
