I prefer JSON over XML any time but the only area where JSON can't compete with XML is UI. ________________________________ From: es-discuss <[email protected]> on behalf of Sanford Whiteman <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, May 14, 2019 1:56:46 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Proposal: native XML object support.
> I don't think we can say that we live in a JSON centric world But we do. It's not that there aren't powerful XML-based applications still being developed. And XML still buttresses some of the most important back-end components of the modern (as well as ancient) web. But surely you cannot have missed the fact that modern API development has so standardized on JSON that one doesn't even need to mention the response type anymore! In any case, if E4X died back when we all used XML all the time, it seems vanishingly unlikely that it would come back now… but I'm not on TC39 so this is just my take. —— S. _______________________________________________ es-discuss mailing list [email protected] https://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/es-discuss
