I'm surprised you're asking this. Most of the questions you want

These are the questions I'm seeking answers to; I know that those of
you who have coded their own Summon front-ends must have faced the
same questions when implementing their record displays.
Feel free to refer to VuFind's Summon template for reference if that is helpful:

So, to solve the conundrum: only PublicationDate_xml and
PublicationDate are of interest. If the former is given, use it and
print (if available) its .month, .day, and .year fields. Else, if the
latter is given, just print it.
Ignore all other date-related fields. Ignore
Hi Godmar - to help answer some of your questions about the fields - I can

experiences from others who are working from APIs to search systems such as
Summon or others.
In regards to the publication date - the Summon API has the
