VS Code

XML Desk

XML Desk evaluates XPath 1.0 and 3.1 in VS Code, with namespace auto-detect, and can copy an XPath, show a tree, format, minify, and check that a document is well-formed. It is pure JavaScript: no Java runtime, no binary download, no remote DTD or XSD fetch, and no telemetry.

Price and where to get it

Lite is free. Pro is on Gumroad.

What it does

  • Lite includes XPath results, copy XPath, the tree, format, minify, and a well-formedness check.
  • Pro, sold on Gumroad, adds CSV or JSON export by XPath, a saved XPath library per workspace, offline XSD validation against local schemas only, and a canonical XML (C14N) diff.
