Some questions about XML:

Question

1: Can I use it alone to make a very small app?
2: What is it used for?
3: Is it a dying language?

Advanced thanks to those who answered :D

Answer 1

So what XML is used for, is to outsource data. Rather than integrating them into the HTML document, they are stored in separate XML files. SinceXML stores data in plain text format, the storage is independent of your platform and your data can be exported, imported, or simply moved much easier.

BTW It's not a dying language and is used alongwith Java for developing android apps!😎😎
