| Description | XML is a versatile kind of language, which resembles HTML. Although they seem to have pretty much in common, as both are based on tags and define documentsí content and structure, they cannot replace each other. First, HTML demonstrates data, while XML describes it. Second, HTML uses standard tags, while XML does not use any, and users who write XML documents actually invent them. XMLs appear to be simpler and more flexible than HTMLs, and they present a very consistent way of sharing information. Meanwhile, these files bear static data, which cannot be rendered without a piece of software. |

| Description | HTML allows creating structured documents and web pages. HTML file contains command tags in angular brackets that mark out each element like title, paragraphs, quotes, links, lists, etc. Web-pages generated with HTML have .html extension (for a static web-page). HTML code is processed by a browser, while user sees only the text and other elements of the page without any tags. The source code can be viewed separately. HTML files can be edited in a common text editor like a TXT file. |

xmlns declarations themselves are dropped from the human-facing output.<, >, &) display as text rather than being interpreted as markup.
XML is everywhere — SOAP responses, Maven POMs, sitemaps, RSS feeds, government data — but a browser shows raw tags rather than a useful view. Converting XML to HTML produces a styled page or tabular layout that a reviewer can read without an XML editor. Drop your .xml file above.
XML (Extensible Markup Language) is the tag-based data format the W3C standardised in 1998. Elements are wrapped in opening and closing tags, attributes hang off tags, and children nest inside parents. Modern browsers display XML as a raw tree without applying any default styling — useful for developers, opaque for everyone else.
HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the markup browsers render. <h1>, <p>, <ul>, <table>, and <a> tags describe document structure; CSS supplies styling. Every browser, email client, CMS, and search engine speaks HTML natively — converting XML to HTML is what makes the data usable for non-technical readers.
