So, if you are a programmer,I would like to ask you a question. Do you prefer XML?
I am not talking about the popularity.I am talking about the way we use XML.

It doesn't have any predefined functions and keywords.
So do you prefer XML?

The only time I typically deal with XML is when I'm messing around with my Xenforo website. I don't code as much as I did before and as I always say.. I don't plan to. I'm learning web development so that is a start. HTML for da win!

XML is pretty great for forms being that it allows for the browser to find the right place using them (unless they're put in wrong), but overall I prefer HTML for anything to do with websites. @Michael if you're still learning web development and have any questions feel free to ask me :)

I'm not sure what function XML would have when developing a standard website. Could someone give me a better explanation?

It is just another markup language.

Many API's tend to use XML or similar outputs for showing data. It's basically gives outside developers a method of access dating to use in their own applications.
