SWXMLHash is a Swift library that provides simple XML parsing by wrapping Apple's XMLParser and converting XML into a hash-like structure of dictionaries and arrays. Its API is inspired by SwiftyJSON, enabling concise, chainable access to XML elements.

Use cases

• parse xml in swift
• convert xml to dictionary in swift
• read rss or atom feeds in an ios app
• parse xml config files in a macos app
• query xml elements with a swifty syntax
• deserialize xml responses from an api

When to choose

• you need lightweight, simple XML parsing in Swift without heavy dependencies
• you want a SwiftyJSON-style API for navigating XML
• you need support for iOS, macOS, tvOS, and watchOS
• you prefer a wrapper over the verbose XMLParser delegate API

When to avoid

• you need full-featured XML processing such as XSLT, XPath, or schema validation
• you are working in a non-Swift language
• you need extremely high-performance streaming of very large XML documents
• you need XML writing/serialization, not just parsing
