About XML

XML (eXtensible Markup Language) is a markup language that defines a set of rules for encoding documents in a format that is both human-readable and machine-readable. It is widely used for representing structured data and for data exchange between different systems.

Key features of XML include:

  • Hierarchical structure with nested elements
  • Support for attributes to provide additional information
  • Strict syntax rules that ensure consistent parsing
  • Unicode support for international character sets
  • Self-descriptive nature that makes data more understandable

XML is commonly used in web services, configuration files, document formats (like DOCX, SVG, and XHTML), and as a data exchange format in enterprise applications.
