format file xml

What is a xml file and how do I open a xml file?

.xml files are files used by a variety of applications because these refer to files that are written in an Extensible Markup Language. This is a format that contains tags and uses it for object definition as well as attributes. These files are a bit similar in formatting compared with an HTML document but in order to define data, custom tags are used. These .xml files are common ways used to store and transfer data on the internet that come from different programs and can be edited by any text editor because they come in text documents. These .xml files can not only be opened using any text editor but they can also be created using any text editors. The only difference is that this format is has more strict rules because these files require to be well-formed and valid especially when it comes to XML documents and validity of data. The best feature about this file extension though is that it is very flexible and simple which makes it truly deigned to overcome challenges that are faced by users who are using this .xml format.
