How do I convert XML to CONF with this tool?

Upload your XML file, choose whether to keep XML attributes as @-prefixed keys or inline them. The converter maps nested elements to dotted CONF keys (e.g., 80 becomes server.port=80). Click 'Convert', download the CONF file, and use it in your application. No server-side processing—everything runs locally in your browser.

Why should I convert XML to CONF instead of keeping XML?

XML is powerful but verbose; CONF is a lightweight, human-readable format used by many tools (Apache, systemd, PHP). Converting reduces file size by removing tags and makes changes easier to read, diff, and version-control. It also avoids parser overhead for simple configs, and many legacy applications require CONF format.

What happens to complex XML structures during conversion?

Nested elements become dotted keys, and repeated elements are indexed (server[0].host, server[1].host). XML attributes are preserved with @ (e.g., becomes file@name=a). Comments and CDATA are retained as CONF comments (#). If an XML element has both text and attributes, the text becomes the value and attributes stay as @-keys. This ensures no data is lost, though you may need to check the mapping for your specific schema.

Is XML-TO-CONF free to use?

Yes, XML-TO-CONF on LetsConvert is 100% free with no registration or hidden fees required.

Are my uploaded files safe and secure?
