🔬Technical Introduction
Core ConceptXML (eXtensible Markup Language) is a markup language that defines rules for encoding documents in a format that is both human-readable and machine-readable. Proper formatting improves readability and maintainability.
Best PracticesUse consistent indentation and proper nesting. Add meaningful comments for complex structures. Validate XML against schemas. Use descriptive element and attribute names. Keep XML well-formed and valid.
