Altova
Altova XMLSpy is an excellent tool for creating/designing new XML schemas (XSDs) using a visual layout tool and helps developers and architects work with XML and JSON documents, understand and validate and diagnose issues with XML and JSON documents. It is not well suited for working with other data formats, such as YAML or CSV.

Edit+ is well suited for basic tasks like using it as a to-do list or writing basic scripts or using it for simple programs that aren't too long or complex.

  • Keep it simple, fast and easy

Alternatives Considered
Altova
XMLSpy does not have many capable competitors, it is the market leader and other alternatives do not provide the tools we rely on.
