🧬 XML to C# — Free Online Tool

Convert XML to C# online, free. XML is a verbose, self-describing markup format used in SOAP, RSS and enterprise systems. C# classes model data for .NET with System.Text.Json support. XML to C# conversion parses your XML against the W3C XML 1.0 grammar (https://www.w3.org/TR/xml/), builds an in-memory model of its keys, nested objects and arrays, then emits ready-to-use C# types with System.Text.Json attributes following the C# language reference conventions. Processing runs in your browser in JavaScript with no upload or server round-trip — no size limit beyond your device's memory, so multi-megabyte documents convert in milliseconds and sensitive payloads never leave your machine. Typical uses include .NET APIs, desktop apps and Azure functions.

🚀 Why use this XML to C# tool?

It maps the full structure of your XML onto idiomatic C# types, following the C# language reference conventions. 100% free, no registration, and complete privacy — everything runs locally in your browser, so your data never touches a server.

Key Features

Instant, in-browser

Paste XML and generate C# types from C# immediately. Conversion runs client-side, so there is no upload wait and large documents stay fast.

🧩Structure-aware mapping

Nested XML objects, tables and arrays are mapped faithfully onto C#, including nested types and optional fields.

🔒100% private

Your XML never leaves your device — everything is processed locally in JavaScript, with nothing logged or stored.

🆓Free, no signup

Unlimited conversions with no account, no quotas, and no watermark. Works on desktop and mobile.

Popular Use Cases

Typed models from samples

  • Turn a sample XML payload into C# types
  • Skip hand-writing boilerplate models
  • Keep front-end and back-end shapes in sync

.NET APIs

  • .NET APIs
  • desktop apps
  • Azure functions

Onboarding a new API

  • Paste an example XML response
  • Get typed C# to consume it safely
  • Catch shape mismatches at compile time

What It Handles

Structure

  • Nested objects & tables
  • Arrays / lists
  • Deeply nested documents

Values

  • Inferred types (string, number, boolean)
  • Optional / nullable fields
  • Nested type names

Workflow

  • Copy or download output
  • Load an example to try it
  • Validate & format the input

Worked example

A XML document and its C# equivalent:

XML input:

<product>
  <sku>A-100</sku>
  <price>19.99</price>
  <active>true</active>
</product>

Output:

public class Product
{
    public string Sku { get; set; }
    public double Price { get; set; }
    public bool Active { get; set; }
}

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert XML to C#?

Paste your XML into the editor and press "Convert to C#". The tool parses it against the W3C XML 1.0 grammar, then generates C# types following C# language reference conventions — instantly and entirely in your browser. You can validate or format the XML first to be sure it is clean.

How is XML structure represented in C#?

XML has no native numbers, booleans or arrays. Repeated child elements become lists in C#, attributes and element text become fields, and values stay strings unless C# coerces them — so review numeric or boolean fields after converting.

Are optional fields detected when generating C#?

Optional or nullable members in the generated C# are inferred from keys missing in some records of your XML, following C# language reference. Include the optional fields in your sample so they are typed correctly.

What is the difference between XML and C#?

XML (eXtensible Markup Language) (XML) — XML is a verbose, self-describing markup format used in SOAP, RSS and enterprise systems. C# classes (C#) — C# classes model data for .NET with System.Text.Json support. This converter maps the structure of your XML onto C# so you can use it for .NET APIs.

Does the converter validate my XML first?

Yes. Invalid XML is flagged with a clear error before anything is converted. Common XML problems to check are matched start and end tags, a single root element, and quoted attribute values. Starting from clean input keeps the generated C# accurate.

Is my XML data private?

Yes. The entire XML-to-C# conversion runs locally in your browser in JavaScript — your XML is never uploaded, logged or stored. That matters when the data is something like SOAP web services, which should not leave your machine.

Where can I use the C# output?

The generated C# is ready for .NET APIs, desktop apps and Azure functions. Copy or download it and drop it straight into your codebase.

🎓 Pro Tips

  • Tip 1: Validate or format your XML first (the Validate / Format buttons) so the converter works from clean, W3C XML 1.0-conformant input.
  • Tip 2: Give the tool a representative XML sample — optional fields are only detected from the keys actually present, so include them if they matter.
  • Tip 3: Authoritative reference for the input format: W3C XML 1.0 — https://www.w3.org/TR/xml/.
  • Tip 4: For the output, follow the C# language reference (https://learn.microsoft.com/dotnet/csharp/) conventions in your codebase.
