Libxml2 is the XML C parser and toolkit developed for the Gnome project

Packit 423ecb
(but usable outside of the Gnome platform), it is free software available
Packit 423ecb
under the MIT
Packit 423ecb
License. XML itself is a metalanguage to design markup languages, i.e.
Packit 423ecb
text language where semantic and structure are added to the content using
Packit 423ecb
extra "markup" information enclosed between angle brackets. HTML is the most
Packit 423ecb
well-known markup language. Though the library is written in C a variety of language bindings make it available in
Packit 423ecb
other environments.
