Every XML page,
readable in Chrome.

What XMLNest does

Open an XML address. XMLNest shows it as a styled page, in a reader view, as a tree or as formatted source.

Styled XML keeps working

Pages that use an XSL stylesheet (XSLT 1.0), like WordPress sitemaps or device status pages, display again after Chrome removes XSLT.

Feeds and sitemaps you can read

RSS and Atom feeds open in a reader view with a built-in podcast player. Sitemaps become a table you can filter, sort and export to CSV or JSON.

A clear XML tree

Fold and unfold, search names and values, copy a node, its value or its path. A broken file shows the line and column of the error.

Private by design

Installed with no access to any site. You choose where it works. Nothing you open is collected or sent anywhere. Read the privacy policy

  • No account, no tracking, no ads
  • Stylesheets run in an isolated sandbox
  • Page scripts stay off unless you allow a site

Questions

Is XMLNest free?

Yes. The extension is free, with no account and no ads.

Is it the official XSLT extension from Google?

No. XMLNest is independent and not affiliated with Google. It uses the open-source xslt-polyfill library.

Why does Chrome ask me to allow access to sites?

XMLNest needs to read an XML page to display it. You decide: on every site, or only on the sites you choose.

Does it work on XML files on my computer?

Yes, once you allow local files. They open in the tree, source and reader views. Like Chrome, it does not apply XSL stylesheets to local files.
