XML to Swift Converter
Convert XML to Swift structs for iOS and macOS development

What is XML to Swift Converter?
Building iOS or macOS apps and need Swift structs from XML? This tool generates clean Swift code with Codable support. Perfect for parsing XML responses from APIs or working with XML config files in your Swift projects.
Instead of manually writing Swift structs and Codable implementations, paste your XML and get ready-to-use code. The converter handles nested structures, optional types, and all the Swift-specific details automatically.
Everything runs in your browser – your XML stays private. Generate, download, and drop the Swift files right into your Xcode project.
What Makes This Tool Different
Codable Support
Generate Swift structs that conform to Codable. Perfect for decoding XML with XMLDecoder or other parsing libraries.
Optional Types
Handle optional properties correctly. Elements that might not exist become optionals, making your code safer.
Custom Struct Names
Set your own struct names to match Swift naming conventions. Works great with your existing codebase.
Nested Structures
Handles complex XML hierarchies. Each nested element gets its own struct, creating a proper type hierarchy.
File Upload
Upload large XML files directly. No need to copy-paste massive API responses or config files.
Xcode Ready
Generated code follows Swift conventions and works perfectly with Xcode. Just drop it in and start using it.
How It Works
Paste or Upload XML
Paste your XML into the left editor, or upload a file. Click "Sample" to see an example. Make sure your XML is valid – use our XML Validator first if needed.
Configure Options
Set your struct name at the top. Toggle Codable and optional types based on your needs. The Swift code updates automatically as you change settings.
Download or Copy
Click "Download" to save the Swift file, or "Copy" to grab the code. Add it to your Xcode project and start using it with XMLDecoder or your preferred XML parser.
When You'd Actually Use This
iOS API Integration
Working with XML APIs in your iOS app? Generate Swift structs to decode responses. Much cleaner than manually parsing XML or working with dictionaries.
macOS Apps
Building macOS apps that work with XML data? Generate Swift structs to make your code type-safe and easier to maintain.
Config Files
Parsing XML config files in Swift? Generate structs first, then use them with XMLDecoder. Type-safe and follows Swift best practices.
Legacy System Integration
Connecting to systems that only output XML? Generate Swift structs to make the integration cleaner and more Swift-like.
Common Questions
Is my XML data stored?
No. Everything runs in your browser. Your XML never leaves your computer.
What Swift version does it generate?
The code works with Swift 4.0+. Codable was introduced in Swift 4, so if you enable Codable support, you'll need Swift 4 or later.
Does it work with XMLDecoder?
Yes. The generated structs conform to Codable, which works with XMLDecoder. You might need to add CodingKeys for XML-specific mapping, but the base structure is there.
Can I customize the generated code?
You can set struct names and toggle Codable and optional types. The generated code is clean and easy to modify – add methods, computed properties, or custom initializers as needed.
What about XML attributes?
XML attributes become properties in the generated structs. Nested elements become nested structs or arrays, depending on the structure.
Does it work with Xcode?
Yes. The generated Swift code follows standard conventions and works perfectly with Xcode. Just add the file to your project.
