The importance of XML and tools to help you get started
In recent years XML has gained a lot of popularity in the IT industry, mostly because of its ease of use. XML provides a standard method to access information, making it easier for applications and devices of all kinds to use, store, transmit, and display data.
XML has no dependencies on the programming language type, operating system platform, databases type, or even human languages and that makes it the perfect data format to allow programmers to build cross platform applications.
With the wide adoption of blogging, one of the most successful uses of XML has been RSS. RSS is a tool that uses the blogging data that is stored as XML and allows bloggers to push that data to ANY RSS reader on ANY device.
While XML is here to stay and is important to learn, it can be overwhelming to get started. Below are some great resources that will help you get on your way.
