Now, create a similar page for XPath...
- gozzoo 3y agodoes anyone still use XPath nowdays?
- account-5 3y agoDoes anyone still use XML? I would imagine the answer to both is yes. I often wish JSON had something as good as xpath.
- djbusby 3y agoThe `jq` command line tool has some neat expressions for selecting things from JSON. Not sure if it's a standard though.
- rhdunn 3y agoXPath and XSLT are still active, especially in the publishing space where documents are not stored in HTML, but in other formats like JATS or DocBook and need converting to HTML when displaying to the user, or converting to other XML formats when interfacing with other formats/vendors like crossref. It's also still used for things like processing the US bill XML data (e.g. https://www.govinfo.gov/bulkdata/BILLS/resources https://www.govinfo.gov/bulkdata/BILLS/resources).
