A while ago I stumbled over a corporate site and decided to open the dev tool on a whim. Turns out it's all XML styled with XSLT stylesheet instead of the usual HTML+CSS. I forgot the name of the site and haven't found another site that do this since then.

I remember the WoW armory site was like this.

It seems they've been rewritten to use standard html+css a while ago. Can't find any trace of xml there.

Heh, yea, I haven't touched that game in 13 years so my memory is nothing but a historical anecdote :)

How long until people start using yaml for data interchange

XML or JSON - does it matter? Turtle is a turtle, same principals apply, just different structure. What happened to server side rendering? Oh, we do that with fancy frameworks and ton of JS now. All good.

Yeah! But to be fair, it kinda works in the reverse too

Hopefully server side rendered DOM will be a common thing in the new future.

How come you guys aren't supporting webp in programs. It should be a supported file type in adobe.
