XSLT
Developers should learn XSLT when working with XML-based data processing, such as in web services, document management systems, or publishing workflows, where transforming XML to different formats is required
Pros
- +It is particularly useful for generating dynamic web content from XML data, converting between XML schemas, or creating reports and documents, as it provides a powerful, template-driven approach that integrates well with XML technologies like XPath and XSL-FO
- +Related to: xml, xpath
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use XQuery if: You want g and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use XSLT if: You prioritize it is particularly useful for generating dynamic web content from xml data, converting between xml schemas, or creating reports and documents, as it provides a powerful, template-driven approach that integrates well with xml technologies like xpath and xsl-fo over what XQuery offers.
