Question 1

How are XML attributes handled?

Accepted Answer

XML element attributes are captured under a special '@attributes' key in the JSON output. For example, <item id='1'> becomes {"@attributes":{"id":"1"}} alongside the element's child data.

Question 2

What happens with repeated XML elements?

Accepted Answer

Sibling elements with the same tag name are automatically grouped into a JSON array. This is the standard convention for representing repeating structures in XML-to-JSON conversion.

Question 3

Are values type-coerced?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Text nodes that look like numbers are converted to JSON numbers, 'true'/'false' to booleans, and empty elements to null, so you get clean, strongly-typed JSON output.
