{"book":{"@id":"123","@lang":"en","#text":"Title"}}

💡 Attributes prefixed with @, text content as #text

💡 Multiple same-name elements become array

Common Mistakes to Avoid

⚠️

Expecting perfect 1:1 mapping

Solution: XML and JSON have different features. XML attributes, namespaces, and CDATA don't map cleanly. Check conversion format.

⚠️

Not handling mixed content

Solution: XML with text AND child elements: <p>Hello <b>world</b></p> is complex. Different tools handle this differently.

⚠️

Losing XML declaration and processing instructions

Solution: <?xml version="1.0"?> and <?xml-stylesheet?> aren't data, they're metadata. JSON conversion drops these.
