Hi Gary,
Say what you will about XML, JSON is just reinventing the wheel.
That's true. I fully agree.
How do
you transform a JSON document into another JSON document or into a PDF?
With Jolt? Good luck. XML and XSLT, XML Schema, and on.
The increased use of JSON etc. is just my observation and not my position.
I don't know what tools those people have in mind. My colleagues for
example suggested to use Thymeleaf to generate e-mails from raw data.
The previous solution was to generate XML, transform it via XSL/T to
HTML and an in-house markup format from which plain text is generated,
thus allowing rich and customizable e-mails. I am curious how far they
will get with their approach...
