What is needed to create a XML file?

All XML files must contain a root element.

XML files must also contain a closing tag.

You can add different attributes into the XML file, for example,

<name>Jake</name>
<lastname>Murphy</lastname>

It is possible to add comments inside your XML file to make the code more readable/easier to understand.

To make the code easier to understand, it is recommended you use descriptive attribute names. For example,

instead of

using

<thisiattribute1>logan</thisisattribute1>

Websites can receive information updates via API and this XML data will be parsed and the information will be displayed via HTML.

<name>logan</name> Websites can receive information updates via API and this XML data will be parsed and the information will be displayed via HTML.
