Why take this course?

XML stands for extensible markup language used to store and transport data. It was created to make it easier to share information across multiple platforms.

In this beginner's course you will learn the basics from creating XML syntax to a full XML document structure.
XML is a popular data exchange format used in a variety of places like web development, Databases and legacy systems. XML in a way acts as a bridge
in data exchange or interpretation. If you have data in say a very old legacy system that you want to transfer or make available in a more
modern system you can use XML to translate the data so both systems can talk to each other. XML unlike HTML allows you to define your own tags thus giving you the freedom and flexibility to design your document
structure to suit your purpose. If you have a basic understanding of HTML and CSS XML will be easier to learn but the course is also easy and basic enough to learn.

The lectures in this course include:

What is XML
syntax
Root Element
Custom Tags
Nested Elements
XML Document Structure
XML Comments

This is a video based course and designed with the absolute beginner in mind. By the end of this course you will be able to create your very own basic XML document with custom tags and elements.
I look forward to welcoming you to the course.

Thank You

I liked this video. Author speaks slowly so everyone who has native language distinguish from English will understand everything properly Мне понравилось. Автор говорит медленно и поэтому тем, кто понимает Английский не как родной все будет понятно

Videos were instructive, learned what I expected to learn. Only comment is the voice of the narrator is a little monotonous, but otherwise very good.

Der Kurs selbst war für mich als blutigen Einsteiger sehr gut geeignet, um XML etwas kennenzulernen. Ich habe Lust, tiefer in das Thema einzusteigen. Mich hat aber sehr stark gestört, dass die Untertitel anscheinend maschinell generiert wurden und dabei die Aussprache des Erzählers nicht erkannt wurde, es stand teilweise abstruser Text dort, der ganz und gar nicht mit dem Gesagten übereingestimmt hat.

The course only described the what but didn’t get into the why or how. It describes what tags and elements and attributes are, but doesn’t ever mention how to use them in the context of a document or why they’re used. This was essentially a course on terminology.

A very good course, very informative for a beginner who has no previous experience with XML. Just a small remark: when you were presenting the Cars elements, you said that both elements have to be written in the same manner, but in the video there was an empty tag where the element in one tag was named as <car-color>, but in the closing bracket the name of the element was </Car-color>. So you should probably edit that, could be confusing, especially when you hear in the next video that that would be a problem when applying the code. Otherwise no remarks :)

This class is very very beginner. This is a good class if you know NOTHING about XML. It goes over tag structure, but not the "why and when to use"...which is what I was looking for. I did learn something, but not very much.
