XiMpLe is a Windows based XML and Json editor written by Petr Novak and first published in 2018.[1] The editor arranges and displays data in a grid table view, which, like e.g. in XMLSpy, enables one to see its structure and manipulate with tables' rows, columns or blocks of data.
Distribution
The program is distributed as one small file which doesn't require any installation.[2] It's free for non-commercial use; the commercial use requires a license[3]. The program is also a part of the Chocolatey package distribution[4].
XML editing features
XiMpLe has several features for editing XML documents. It checks the "well-formed" conditions of the file and can also validate a file by an XSD schema in a special mode.[5] Two XML files can be compared and the differences can be reviewed in a grid table view mode. Together with features for merging the changes, the documents can be merged and modified in a simple way[6]. Bigger files (over 100MB) can be split into smaller fragments by the editor's special tool. These smaller pieces don't break the well-formed property and can be edited separately. At the end these fragments can be put together again by a join functionality of the editor[7].
It supports copy and paste functions in cooperation with spreadsheet editors[8]. XiMpLe also provides a quite special feature for mining nested data in a table's column (section Sub-tables in the user guide [7]).
Versions
Up to version 1.5 the tool was based on .NET Framework 3.5 or .NET Framework 4.0.[2] From version 1.6 the .NET Framework 4.5 is used.
